My Dad Let Me Go So His Real Son Could Take My Spot — Karma Had Other Plans

Life has a funny way of surprising you. I started working at my stepdad’s construction business at 15, doing everything from organizing files to cleaning. As I worked my way up to foreman, it wasn’t passion but my stepdad’s tough-love rule that kept me going. Then, my stepbrother David, who’d been absent for years, returned.

One day, I was called into the boss’s office, and just like that, I was let go to make room for David, who had a degree. It felt like a classic case of nepotism. I left, heartbroken but soon found a new job at a competing firm, where I thrived as a project manager.

Months later, rumors surfaced about my father’s company struggling. Then I discovered David was applying for jobs at my new company. Life had a strange twist. I interviewed him, and suddenly, the tables had turned. I was now the one with the power, and it felt like karma had come full circle.
