😦 Michael was humiliating Margaret, without imagining what was going to happen next.
We were in Beacon, waiting for our rooms to be ready.
Margaret was cleaning the floor. Margaret wasn’t talking to anyone; Margaret was just doing her job. That was when Michael walked into Beacon.
Dressed in a stylish suit, Michael spoke in an arrogant tone, as if everyone owed Michael something. A few employees were whispering among themselves, and I realized that Michael was the son of William.
Michael walked up to Margaret, who was cleaning the floor, and snapped, “This isn’t a train station; it’s a business. The floor should be cleaned before the clients arrive, not during the day.”
Margaret looked up, but she didn’t say anything. Then Michael kicked the bucket, spilling water across the floor. He added, “Clean that up. You’re here to serve.”
No one reacted—neither the security guards nor the receptionists. Margaret, without saying a word, picked up the bucket and continued cleaning the floor.
Michael had no idea what was going to happen next.
The rest of this story is in the article in the first comment 👇👇👇.
William, who had seen everything, fired Michael from the company.
Then I heard that a few weeks later, Michael returned, but this time as a cleaning employee, determined to start over from scratch.
Michael learned to respect others and to work humbly, proving his change.
Michael was promoted to Director of Human Development and implemented initiatives to improve working conditions.
Michael never forgot the lesson he had learned at Beacon, and he fought every day to provide a fairer, more humane work environment.
One day, Michael ran into Margaret, now in charge of a team, and gave her a sincere smile, grateful for everything he owed her.
Margaret, silent, returned his smile, aware that what Michael had been through had changed him forever.
