Woman protects her career by getting coworker fired for deliberately sabotaging her promotion, office split because the coworker’s a single mom of 3: 'Being a single mother does not give you a free pass'

All's fair in love and war… does that saying apply to office politics? Anyway, this woman recently got a well-deserved promotion for silently working hard and staying late to get things done. What should've been a happy moment of accomplishment quickly turned sour when her coworker (who also wanted the promotion) came up with a sneaky plan to take her down from the inside.

Getting turned down for a job stinks big time. Believe me, before I scored my current job, I was interviewing for eight months straight. It's rough out there. It's easy to feel envious of the people who got the role over you, but trying to sabotage them once they do get the job just sends karma straight for ya.

And that's exactly what happened to this coworker. She got caught red-handed, with receipts and all. But things got messy when she got fired and people found out she was a single mom of three. Still, does that give you a free pass to mess with someone else's livelihood?
