Employee Saves Child From Kidnapper, Instead Of Promotion Gets This Letter Saying He’s Fired
This guy from Portland, Oregon just lost his job at Home Depot for violating company policy, which doesn’t sound like such a big deal until you realize that the reason he broke the rules was because he was stopping a child from getting kidnapped!
News flash: Lowe’s has the same policy. Employees are are not allowed to follow customers (anyone in the store who is not an employee) or approach them or touch them regarding theft or violation of any law. “Run, Hide, Fight” is the only exception.
The reasons are almost innumerable, but legal repercussions are among the most critical. LE are free to use discretion and allow citizens in the community to help. But Lowe’s policies govern Lowe’s and their employees to protect both employees and customers.
