Today, on my first day as a lifeguard, a man had a heart attack in the pool. I jumped in, pulled him out, and even went to the hospital with him. He seemed genuinely offended, saying "You should've let me die." FML

Fall

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

You possibly saved a life. That's pretty awesome, even if he didn't throw you a parade after...

Don't take it to heart. You did good OP.

Did he mention a DNR by chance?

Don't let it bother you. You did your job and that's really all that matters at this point, OP.

Unless there was a DNR bracelet you did the right thing OP. Even then you should not let them drown. I support what you did.

I'm sorry for his reaction but you did amazing! You should be very proud of yourself. You saved someone's life.
