• The now-grown daughter could not believe what she was seeing. It was the same man who fired her mother, coming to pitch his company to her. She was witnessing karma in action. 

  After his pitch, she asked if her remembered an office manager they had decades ago. A woman, who was unjustly fired on the spot… He hesitated and acted like he only “vaguely” remembered. Well, she sure did remind him! She told him that was her mother and that their caterer list was full. His face was enough to show that he understood karma had finally caught up with him.

• Now, she's wondering if that was a petty move as a professional for her to make. But c'est la vie. If you are willing to dish it out, you have to be willing to take it back. It all comes back to that first tip you made when you started your career: “Don't burn any bridges.” 

  We bet that guy is wishing he had listened back then. Now, he's six-figures less and basically black-listed from one of the best venues in town. We love a daughter standing up for her mother!
