The problem was that the first cut was reading the same standard input source as the while loop and consuming all of the input, leaving nothing for the remaining commands to read. Since you need to use the input line for all 3 cut commands you just need to use the contents stored in the line variable and send it to each individual cut.
Lakris, the exec < workunits-status.txt doesn't execute the text file, it assigns it as the default source of standard input.
