Wear hand-me-downs and ask your doctor for free prescription drugs, advises a pamphlet to bankrupt Northwest employees facing the loss of their jobs.
Don’t be shy, either, about “pulling something you like out of the garbage,” suggests the 101-tips reported in the Bismarck Tribune.
The tips were art of a packet of information given to ground workers likely to lose their jobs after their union approved the airline’s plan for outsourcing.
A Northwest spokesman said the manual was not meant to be insulting. But Bryan Dalzell, a union steward, disagreed.
“It’s so patronizing. It’s just so pathetic,” he said.
