John has been a zookeeper for years, devoted to the seals in his care, especially a newborn seal pup he’d grown particularly fond of. One day, this baby seal started showing unusual signs, behaving oddly and appearing to shed tears, which alarmed John deeply. He reported the behavior to his supervisor, who decided to review the CCTV footage for any clues to the pup’s condition. However, what the footage revealed led to an outcome John never anticipated: his immediate dismissal.
John was fired
“What do you mean I’m fired?!” John, perplexed, inquired of his supervisor. “I apologize, John. “You gave me no other option,” his employer stated, folding his hands together. He had just seen the CCTV footage of the newborn seal enclosure, as John had advised him to. “You have the rest of the day to pack your things and leave.”
