Full title: Oregon woman fired from bank job after giving struggling man $20 of her own money to get home for Christmas.

She first cleared it with her manager. Manager was fired too.

And people wonder why shit is so hectic right now. If this woman wanted to give someone $20 of her own hard earned money, her generosity shouldn't be punished. The fact that two people were fired over an act of kindness that totaled $20 is absurd.

Think about how much money it'll cost US Bank to replace both the employee and manager they fired. Over $20 that didn't even come out of their pocket? Sounds pretty clear who the assholes are here.
