Tomas Lopez is the lifeguard in question. He got an apology after this story went national and two other employees resigned over the incident. Did you know that 4 others also protested and they were sacked too. What kind of life guard company is that?

They offered him his job back but he refused and said he rather continue his education and look for a better job - no kidding!

People complain too much, just because a life guard doing he's job? That is ridiculous! What they will rather, the life guard doing nothing or he is doing his job to save people from drowning?
