Boss Will Not Let Mom Leave At 5 So She Gets Payback

She tried to arrange a different way to do things. But her firm didn’t seem to understand the responsibilities of a mother.

She had been a loyal employee for over ten years and now she felt neglected and pushed to the side. It was personal for her, she would do something about it.

Alice Thompson

Alice Thompson tried her best at her job and she felt that she was pretty good at it. She was the best real estate agent in her firm. She felt on top of the world, then life happened.

She worked hard to get what she wanted and was the kind of woman who wouldn’t back down for anything, and it normally paid off.

Heart And Soul

“I’d put my heart and soul into an estate agency career for more than a decade. That’s no mean feat, it’s quite a male-dominated environment to work in. And I’ve worked really hard to build relationships with clients”.

But she was unaware that no matter how hard she worked she’d find out how easily things can change.

Mom-To-Be

Thompson couldn’t hold back her tears of joy the day that she found out that she was pregnant. She had always wanted kids but wanted to make sure she could support them before getting pregnant.

But now it felt like everything was falling into place. She took her maternity leave and was keen to return to her job afterward.

Worker’s Rights

Anyone working in the UK is entitled to flexible working hours after being with a company for more than 26 weeks and the employer has to give them a decision in less than 3 months.

So Thompson came back to work and used the right she felt she had. But she didn’t know that it would end terribly.
