## Resource

A former 911 dispatcher got fired for taking a 15-minute break to rescue a baby deer—yes, really. He told his supervisor he was stepping out, and the deer ended up with a wildlife rescue. The fallout split the community: some called it reckless endangerment, others called it a shameful injustice. Caleb, devastated, is now job hunting while the nation debates whether helping—even in small, unexpected ways—should ever cost you your job.
