The businessman was within his rights to sack the night-watchman because the night-watchman's job is to protect the premises, not to sleep on duty. By dreaming, the night-watchman demonstrated that he was sleeping during his shift, which is a dereliction of duty. Therefore, despite the night-watchman's good intentions and the fortunate outcome, the businessman was justified in dismissing him for not performing his job properly.

I take your point about where such attitudes belong but I think it may be a libel on the Stone Age to make them responsible for such attitudes.
