Tough break for the fired employee, but from a managers position, she had no role being outside of the store while on the clock. I would have simply made a call to the police, but she wanted to be Florance Nightingale(SP?) by saving the dogs in such a attention getting manner, and she brought it upon herself. BTW, losing her job at NM may be a blessing in disguise...

Too bad she didn't call the cops about the mistreatment of the dogs! And why didn't the police do anything more than call the "mall cops" (truly cops? Odd slang for newspaper)? And where are overhead pigeons when you need them?

Reeder, who described the employee as a "glorified secretary" for the precious gems department...

Way to go, "executive" Ginger.

As a policy, Neiman Marcus only terminates employees who have had prior incidents, Reeder said.

They are only TERMINATED if they have prior incidents. If they don't have prior incidents, are they terminated and given a bonus? Horrible writing...sloppy slang, misplaced modifiers, etc...but great job getting glorified-gossip Ginger Reeder to reveal her true colors, eh?

She was NOT on the clock! She was on her way back to work and was NOT on company time.
