She Works For Her Dad, And After He Told Her He Wasn’t Going To Pay Her As Much As Her Brothers, She Quit To Go Work For His Competition, So He’s Accusing Her Of Betraying Him
A young woman’s dad has a successful business, and she has 2 brothers that currently work for her dad and make really good money doing so.
As soon as she hit an age where her dad thought it was ok for her to start working at their family business, she did just that.
Unfortunately, when she started working for her dad though, he made it clear that he wasn’t going to pay her the same as her brothers.
“He decided that since I am a woman, I would probably end up getting married and not working there long-term,” she explained. “So he didn’t pay me the same as my brothers when they started.”
“I worked there all through high school and while I was in college. I am in my last year, and I want to join the company when I graduate.”
“I spoke with my father about bringing my earnings in line with what he paid my brothers. He said no because he just finished paying for my college. He paid theirs too. And I got a partial scholarship.”
Well, she had had enough at this point. She has spent the last 6 years working for her dad, and to be told that she’s not going to be allowed to earn the same as her brothers was her breaking point.
She’s graduating college this upcoming June, and so she began job hunting. It wasn’t long until she landed a paid internship with a company that does directly compete with her dad.
The only difference is that her dad has a handle on the local market, and the company she’s about to go work for is on a national level.

“Now he is pissed at me for taking everything I learned from him and taking it to the competition,” she said.
“I never worked with clients, so it’s not like I am going to poach any. I am doing what all my friends are doing. Getting a job in our field that pays well.”
“My dad is angry, and my mom says that he is hurt that I betrayed him. I think I gave him a chance to be fair, and he turned me down, so I have no reason to feel guilty.”
She’s left wondering if it’s really so wrong of her to quit working for her dad to go to his competitor.
Do you think she should continue working for her dad, even though he’s paying her less than her brothers?
