Fired, Then 3x Salary

Summary

Answering an emergency call got me reported for a "bad attitude," and my department head fired me on the spot.

The patient's mother gloated, "Good. You deserve to be unemployed."

So I walked away and took a job at a private institute for triple the salary.

The next day, that same mother burst into my new ER, clutching her child. "Please, I'm begging you, save my son!"

Her son had a rare disease. Only three doctors in the entire city knew how to treat it.

Two of them were overseas.

The third one was me.

"I'm sorry," I said. "I'm no longer a doctor at your hospital."
