Can a person be suspended from work because he saved the life of a cat during working hours?
We naturally answer "no!", But unfortunately this is not the case. The story we are going to tell now is about a worker who was suspended because he helped a cat.
But let's go in order.
Mr. Maurice German, the worker in question who works for a telecommunications company, during his shift, noticed a cat that was curled up on the highest point of a telephone pole.
After several hours the cat was unable to get out and therefore German, moved with compassion, decided well to help him. He got into his work truck, which has a rather long arm for servicing the telephone poles, and brought the cat to safety. Cat named Momma. Everything was filmed in a video and posted on You Tube.
This gesture, which found the admiration of many, however, marked German's career. In fact, his employers did not like it and in a press release they explained that, although the gesture was admirable, it endangered his life and that of other people. In addition, the equipment and means of work must be used only for the scheduled work.
As a result, Mr. German was temporarily suspended from work, resulting in a loss of salary of $ 4,650.
This decision was not welcomed by many and two pages were opened in support of the worker aimed at recovering the money he will lose in these days of suspension.
Surely the cat Momma and her owners will certainly have appreciated the gesture and will be forever grateful to her! What choice would you have made?
