    Moderation Reminder:

    Flame wars in the comments section don’t do anything but inspire more cynicism and aggression. Don’t like a story? Then downvote it, and maybe leave a constructive comment. Then move on.

    Did someone respond negatively, unconstructively, or aggressively? Let a mod know rather than feeding into it. Our community doesn’t need the comments turning into a cesspool of insults.

    Don’t these sort of stories end up with the employee getting fired for some frivolous crap like performing unauthorized activities or something?

    I mean I’d surely hope not, it’s wonderful that they managed to save the baby, but we live in a dystopia…

      Hopefully the glow of public attention will protect her for a little while at least. Corporate probably doesn’t want her calling back GMA for a follow-up interview.

      I’m hoping for the happy-cynical, orphan-crushing-machine ending: someone sets up a GoFundMe and raises a bunch of money to allow the mother of four to raise her children and not be stuck managing a Taco Bell.

    How long do you think it’ll take corporate to fire her? Because no good deed goes unpunished in this hell.

        You can both be happy that a life was saved and be aware that due to the corporate dystopia we live in they’re probably getting fired.

          Where are people getting that she’ll probably get fired? Based on what?
