Danielle Reese from FOX5. She was a reporter working overnights. She and her photographer were returning from an assignment when the desk ordered her to return to the story and wait for a dayside crew to replace her. She refused. She's pregnant. (She has a doctor's note advising her to work no more than 8 hours a day.) So the desk told the photog to find a place to drop her off and return without her. He dumped her at a Waffle House, where she called a cab and went back to the station. Next step? She turned in her company cell phone and pager. Then she cleaned out her desk and left. Smart move.

Fox 5 is known for treating its people terribly. This story is very typical of the place. It's a sweat shop there! There's no such thing as an eight hour day.
