Boss Fires Young Dishwasher Suspecting Her of Theft, Apologizes in Tears After He Opens Her Bag — Story of the Day

Thomas, a wealthy widower in his 50s, was used to flirting with young women, including his employees. Giselle, a 20-year-old dishwasher, recently lost her husband and struggled to care for her newborn. When Thomas tried to flirt with her, she rejected him, making him furious.

Thomas later accused Giselle of stealing when he saw her carrying a large bag, planning to humiliate her. But when he opened it, he discovered she was hiding her baby inside. Giselle explained that she had no choice but to bring her baby to work since she couldn’t afford childcare. Moved by her situation, Thomas apologized, revealing his own past pain from losing his family. He gave Giselle paid leave to care for her child and promised to double her salary when she returned.

Though Thomas stopped flirting with his employees, he still struggled to find true love. Giselle’s story showed that a mother will do anything to protect her child, and Thomas learned that money can’t buy everything.
