Today, I found out that a coworker and I may get laid off soon, all because my boss's niece told him she can do both our jobs all by herself, and for less money. FML

You need to ask your boss if he can sack the niece if she does a bad job. This is why you don't get friends to do jobs in your house, if it goes wrong you have to tell them off and then pay to get someone in. You loose both money and a friend, and whomever you get in will complain that the job will cost more because "someone has messed with it". Which will be the same when the niece goes, it will take twice as long to sort her mess out. Actually sounds like a small firm that has no HR department, if he is thinking of employing a niece.
