Hi, I’m Diana. This is the story of how karma handed me justice on a silver platter when my child’s bully’s mother ended up working under me—and tried to destroy my reputation.

After years of stress and trauma, including moving homes, switching schools, and even getting a restraining order to protect my son from a vicious bully named Tommy, my family was finally healing. I had just started a new job closer to home with a life-changing promotion.

Then I found out my new hire was Janet—Tommy’s mother.

She turned pale when we first met, and I avoided her, keeping things professional and written. But soon, she started spreading lies at work—claiming I was toxic and had an affair with her husband.

That’s when I decided: enough was enough.

With help from a trusted coworker, I discovered that Janet had bribed someone to skip her mandatory background check. I took the evidence to HR. She was given 10 days to comply. She didn’t—and eventually stopped showing up.

Her employment was terminated.

My team was relieved, my name was cleared, and most importantly, my son and I could breathe again. The bully’s mother tried to bring her drama into my life, but karma—and policy—had the final say.
