Lay People Off, Show them How to Save Money

Not sure how I missed this one, but Northwest laid of about 60 people earlier this month, and as part of the layoff package, included a list of 101 ways to save money.

At first hand, this sounds like something pretty practical, but then when you actually go down the list, it gets a little bit insulting. The one that apparently has had all the press (was I actually asleep when all of this came out), was item number 46 - "Don't be shy about pulling something you like out of the trash". #4 - Carpool, seems a little ironic, given they don't have a job anymore - where would they carpool too? The park?
