</div> <p>Over the weekend, Adam Schrader settled into his new apartment in Columbus, Texas, after moving from his parents&#8217; home in Tuscon to start a new job as managing editor for the Colorado County Citizen, a community newspaper. Schrader missed the first day of work on Monday after getting stranded in Katy, Texas, a town 45 minutes away from Columbus which was being intentionally flooded to reduce the flooding in nearby Houston. By 9:22 am on Tuesday, Schrader was let go from his new position via a tersely phrased text message.</p>

<p dir="ltr" lang="en">lol i just got fired by text because i&#8217;m trapped in a hurricane and couldn&#8217;t make it to my first day of work. <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Harvey?src=hash" target="_blank">#Harvey</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/NYDailyNews" target="_blank">@NYDailyNews</a> <a href="https://t.co/lSrPFh1Xyk" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/lSrPFh1Xyk</a></p>
<p>— Adam Schrader (@Schrader_Adam) <a href="https://twitter.com/Schrader_Adam/status/902540566378024960" target="_blank">August 29, 2017</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Before starting his new job, Schrader took a freelance assignment for the New York Daily News covering the hurricane in Houston. The roads were clear on the way to Houston, he explained to Death and Taxes, but when he tried to leave on Sunday, it took him three hours to drive what should have been a 20-minute stretch of I-10. When he realized that he wasn&#8217;t going to make it back in time, he stopped off at a hotel in Katy.</p>
<p>&#8220;I sent my boss an email at 3 a.m.,&#8221; Schrader told Death and Taxes by phone. As of Tuesday afternoon, he was still stranded in a hotel room in Katy. &#8220;I didn&#8217;t want to call my new coworkers at three in the morning. I also texted my boss in the morning.&#8221;</p>
<p>The New York Observer <a href="http://observer.com/2017/08/hurricane-harvey-journalist-fired-colorado-county-citizen/" target="_blank">published the text conversation</a> between Schrader and his new boss Michelle Banse Stokes where he kept her appraised of his struggle to get back to town amid flood waters. He even offered to work remotely and help out with reporting while stranded. &#8220;I asked if there was any way I could help with the coverage — I wanted to be useful,&#8221; Schrader said. &#8220;I didn&#8217;t hear back.&#8221;</p>
<p>He didn&#8217;t hear back except for the text telling him his services were no longer needed. &#8220;That&#8217;s too bad, I was really excited about starting this job and I&#8217;m a very dedicated employee,&#8221; Schrader texted in response. &#8220;But, oh well, thanks anyway.&#8221;</p>
<p>Schrader heard nothing back, so he followed up with a text that read, &#8220;But at least I&#8217;m alive, right? Take care.&#8221;</p>
<p>According to Schrader, there was &#8220;no communication&#8221; from the paper after the termination text.</p>
<p>&#8220;The paper was going to reimburse the cost of moving,&#8221; Schrader said. He had just moved into his new place on Saturday and has yet to even sign the lease. &#8220;I can understand an employer getting frustrated with an employee not showing up to work,&#8221; Schrader said, &#8220;but these are devastating circumstances.&#8221;</p>
<p>In addition to his own hardships, between not knowing how he&#8217;s going to eat and pay rent now that he spent all his money on a move for a job that no longer exists, Schrader wants to drive home that he&#8217;s well aware that plenty of other Harvey victims are in worse predicaments.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s hard seeing other people&#8217;s lives get devastated,&#8221; Schrader said.</p>
<p>Death and Taxes reached out to Stokes for comment and to ask if the paper would still be reimbursing Schrader for the cost of his move, but haven&#8217;t heard back.</p>
<p><strong>UPDATE, 10:26 p.m.: </strong>Schrader issued a statement of apology about his &#8220;lapse in judgment&#8221; by taking on a freelance assignment immediately before assuming his staff position at the paper.</p>

<p><strong>UPDATE, 10:31 p.m.: </strong> A statement from the Colorado County Citizen: &#8220;On Monday morning, fifteen minutes past when he was to report to the office, I contacted him asking if he would be at work that day. I had not heard from him prior&#8230; Only after I contacted him did he let me know this. His response was that he had gone to Houston to cover the flood for a national news outlet as a freelancer.&#8221;</p>
