104. What a horrific story - but I don't exactly let the worker who obeyed her boss's unreasonable order

It goes without saying that what this boss did was unconscionable. But to me, so is the fact that the worker who was administering CPR obeyed her boss's order to stop. I'm sorry, but in a circumstance like this, where a person's life was possibly at stake, the moral course is to continue trying to save the person's life, even if you have to disobey your boss to do it and even if it means you may be fired. Do what you can to save the person's life -- then fight it out with upper management later.
