    I disagreed with everything you said though, its a frog, she's perfectly entitled to her code of ethics and if she felt the right thing to do was stop and move the frog onto the pavement so that it could be squashed by the next vehicle that came along rather than her bus than that is her right.

    However if the bus company are more concerned about their buses running on time and don't care less about whether a frog dies now at the hands of one of their drivers or ten minutes later at the wheels of a different vehicle then that is absolutely their right too and they should be allowed to sack her without a media outcry.
    Fair enough if it's going to enivitably die but if she doesn't want to be the one to do it she shouldn't have to.

    Personally I would of ran the fucker over for that very reason but those are my ethics and not hers.

    They won't of sacked her because the bus was late, it was 20 minutes late anyway... they will have sacked her because of the amount of complaints that the public gave them... the very same reason that they rehired her.

    Yes that's a sensible way of looking it I guess, they are just trying to respond as best they can to customer disatisfaction.

    The world is so fucked up that I can imagine if they didn't rehire her the WWF would join with Liberty and any other crackpot dogooding organisation to stage a boycott of their buses

    If I was the owner of the company though I would have rode the complaints out and even turned it into a positive ad campaign.

    I'd have an advert of buses running with total efficiency crushing slugs, snails, frogs underfoot and arriving at their destinations on time whilst the rival bus company stops ever few minutes to scoop snails of the road and put them on the curb, with the driver always giving way for traffic and slowing to let a little old lady with a zimmerframe cross the road in her own time.

    Then I'd pan back to my bus just plouging a large sway through the traffic storming past the rival bus leaving a cloud of dust all over its windscreen.

    I'd end with the slogan 'Fed up with your transport company caring more about pondlife than they do you? Then drive with Bilbo's Buses and reclaim the roads for humanity. We get you to where you want to go on time, because we only want the frog lovers, not our customers to be hopping mad'

    Your creativity is very misguided.

    Rice field frog legs are actually quite tastey.

    I think only Clubber can decide the proper course of action.
