FA Fired for Collecting Food Stamps

A flight attendant at Compass Airlines was fired for publicly revealing that the airline's pay scale was so shitty that she qualified for food stamps.

Tevye was wrong: It is a shame to be poor, at least if you happen to be employed by Compass Airlines. What does Compass Airlines expect their FAs to do; walk up and down the side of the road and scavenge empty bottles for the deposit money?

The "compass" in their name doesn't refer to their moral compass. For a manger who would fine an employee for speaking the truth about what she is paid is a reprehensible lout.

Tevye was wrong indeed.

There is a long standing tradition of poor are criminals. Which is what so many came here, oh way back when, to work off their debt, avoid it or start over after debtors prison.

Compass needed a correction card.

Eck!

Sorry to say she is probably screwed, the corporation has her as an employee at will, they can can her anytime for anything, now if she had a UNION....

looks like the 1930s to me and we need an FDR
