"I'd rather lose my job and be alive," he said.

ST. LOUIS COUNTY, Mo. — During this weekend's snowstorm, a Domino's Pizza delivery driver says he was forced to make a life or death decision.

"I'd rather lose my job and be alive or keep my vehicle than have my job and not have my vehicle or worse not my life," said the driver who asked not to be identified.

Until Friday, he said his attendance record was spotless.

"No, I've never called off, not for being sick, weather or anything of that matter. Been there on time for my shift ever since I started."

That all changed when St. Louis County was hit with 10 inches of snow.

"When we saw that the roads were becoming extremely bad and hearing about people being stranded on roads such as Interstate 44, we figured it was in our best interest to stay home."

He said when he called his bosses to say he was not coming in, they threatened to fire him.

"I couldn't believe that they wouldn't care about our personal safety that they were more concerned about making money."

They eventually changed their minds and issued him two write-ups instead. He says one more, and he'll be fired.

"This wasn't us not following protocol, this was us heeding the storm warnings and looking out for our personal safety."

The company that owns the Domino's franchise is MBR Management.

Their employee handbook says "any employee who believes weather-related events may prevent them from coming in must follow certain procedures to get the day 'excused'."

It also says an absence may still be unexcused, even if the employee has a good reason.

"I would like to see a better inclement weather policy something stating that in a serious snow storm, or even an ice storm, that we will be fine if we can't make it in."

This driver says he is speaking up because of another driver. She's pregnant and was forced to go into work as well.
