Exploitative boss rips off local teenagers to save $10,000 for a vacation, then gets put in the crosshairs by a furious mom: 'I'm calling the labor department'

There are some trials and tribulations that parents just have to watch their kids go through. Ill-advised bangs, unsightly fashions, and a goofy minimum wage first job are some of the classic 'trials' that every teenager needs to learn about through experience. But when that goofy part-time job starts becoming exploitative, it's time for Mama Bear's gloves to come off. 

Our next story begins when a mom decides to let her teenage daughter get a job working for a local party planner. All of the local kids were thrilled for the opportunity to get the job, but what they found out later, was that this particular employer required an 8-week unpaid trial period where the teens would have to forego a paycheck. Mom finally found out about the blatant exploitation when her daughter stopped going to work suddenly. Apparently, all the kids were temporarily 'laid off' because the boss was going on a 1-month vacation. 

Scroll for the entire story of an enraged mother putting the pieces together on a $10,000 scam operation and how she intends to derail the entire thing.
