Rich Young Woman Mocks Poor Old Man, Two Days Later They Switch Places — Story of the Day

A rich young woman mocks the janitor at her father’s company and he decides to teach her a lesson she will never forget.

Danielle Grobber was used to having everything her own way. She was beautiful, intelligent, talented, and very, very rich. Or at least, Danielle’s father was very rich and she’d always thought of his money as hers.

So Danielle, or Danie, as her friends called her, was more than a little spoiled, but she always managed to charm her way out of trouble with her sweet talk and her dazzling smile. Then she crossed a line, and her father taught her a life lesson she would never forget.

Danielle was about to go off on a two-week dream vacation to the Caribean and had talked her father into taking her on a shopping spree. Not that Danie was in need of anything, she just loved shopping with her dad.

Unfortunately, he had to skip their lunch to attend to some urgent issues, and so she’d wandered around a bit before walking into a famous fast food restaurant and ordering herself a burger with all the trimmings, fries, a large soda, and an apple pie.

She took her order and walked back to her dad’s building which was surrounded by a well-tended lawn dotted with shady trees, comfortable benches, and murmuring fountains. She sat and ate her food while she texted her friends on her phone.

When she finished, she wiped her lips, crumpled the napkin, and carefully applied lipstick. Then she got up and started to walk away, leaving all the packaging and left-overs on the bench.

A voice stopped her in her tracks. “Excuse me, miss!” the voice said. “Please pick up your trash and put it in the bin.”

Treat everyone with respect if you want to be respected.

Danie turned around and stared at a thin elderly man in a janitor’s uniform who was sweeping the garden path. “Excuse me?” she asked. “Are you talking to ME?”

“Yes, young lady,” the man said. “This little park is for the people who work here to enjoy, and I don’t think it’s fair to leave rubbish behind.”

“I don’t clean up!” Danie said arrogantly. “People clean up for ME. People like you, the servant class — isn’t that your job? So do it — clean it up!”

The elderly man flushed. “Young lady,” he said. “My job is to keep this building and this garden spick and span but what you did is disrespectful…”

Danie interrupted him rudely. “You work for my father, which means you work for me! If I tell you to clean up, you clean up, if I tell you to lick my shoes, you lick my shoes or I’ll get you fired!”

It was at that moment that Danie heard a voice like thunder: “DANIELLE!” She turned around to find her father standing there looking furious. “Who do you think you are?” Jack Grobber asked her. “How dare you humiliate this man, who has worked for me for over 20 years. A hard-working man, with a family!”

“Daddy?” said Danie in her best little girl voice. “Please don’t be mad at me…I’m sooo sorry!” But under her sweet smile, Jack caught a flicker of mockery. Danie thought she was going to get away with this, just like she’d gotten away with everything in the past.

“Apologize to Mr. Terence, Danielle,” Jack ordered and watched as his daughter turned to the janitor with her most charming manner — but now he knew it was all an act.

“It’s my fault,” Jack thought. “I have to put this right!” But how do you undo a lifetime of indulgence and teach a young woman respect and responsibility?

Then Jack had a brilliant idea. “Mr. Terence, you look very tired!” he said. “I think you need a vacation!”

Mr. Terence smiled and shook his head. “My wife says the same, Mr. Grobber, but I’m saving up my vacation days for the end of the year so we can spend Christmas with the grandchildren!”

“That’s quite alright, Mr. Terence,” Jack said. “I’m giving you two weeks off and an all-expenses-paid trip to the Bahamas for you and your wife!”

Mr. Terence’s gaped. “Sir? The Bahamas…But who will fill in for me?”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Terence,” Jack said smiling. “My daughter Danielle will be more than happy to fill in for you, to make up for the unpleasant way she treated you.”

“WHAT?” screamed Danie, “Are you mad, daddy? I’m going on vacation…”

“Not anymore,” Jack said. “Mr. and Mrs. Terence are going in your place, and you will do his job while he is away.”

“YOU CAN’T DO THAT TO ME!” screamed Danielle. “I’m not a janitor! Cleaning toilets? Sweeping? Picking up other people’s trash? I won’t do it!”

“Yes you will,” her father said coldly. “Or I will cut off your allowance, take away that convertible…”

“It’s MY car!” cried Danie.

“No, Danielle,” Jack said quietly. “It’s MY car. I paid for it, I pay for the insurance and the gas. It’s all mine. Everything you have, I give you, so I think it’s time you learned how hard people have to work for every dollar.”

Danie knew her father very well, and by the look in his eyes, she realized she’d crossed some boundary. He would not be sweet-talked out of this crazy notion!

“You start on Monday,” Jack told her, then he turned to Mr. Terence. “And you’d better go home and pack, Mr. Terence! Bon Voyage!”

Monday morning Danie was there in her uniform, cleaning and sweeping, and emptying trash cans. By the end of the day she was exhausted, her beautiful nails were ruined, and her soft pampered hands were red and sore.

By the time Mr. Terence came back from the Bahamas with an amazing tan, Danie was quite an expert at the job and he was happy to report to Mr. Grobber that she’d left everything spick and span — no trash in the garden!

As for Danie, she never again disrespected anyone for doing a hard day’s work because she knew exactly what that felt like!

Donna Mills Defied the Odds at 54 – Meet Her Beautiful Daughter Who’s Now Pregnant at 30!

Donna Mills has always done things her own way, both in Hollywood and in her personal life. At 54, she made the bold choice to become a mother, even though some people doubted her ability to raise a child at that age. Now, 30 years later, she is excited to become a grandmother.

For many years, Donna Mills was a well-known face in Hollywood, famous for her roles on popular TV shows and her passion for acting. But she had a strong desire for something more. This led her to step away from her successful career and embrace motherhood, even when many thought it was too late.

Although some people were surprised by her choice, Donna’s determination remained strong. Her child became the most important part of her life, and she has treasured being a mother more than any other role.

Now, as her life comes full circle, Donna is about to become a grandmother. Her story is one of perseverance, love, and defying what society expects.

Defying Society’s Expectations and Choosing Motherhood
When Donna decided to adopt her daughter, Chloe, at 54, many people were doubtful. They thought she was too old to raise a child and often said things like, “You’ll be too old to keep up with a little toddler running around.”

But Donna didn’t let these doubts stop her. Despite the criticism, she was sure she could handle it. “I never felt older than the other mothers, who were probably in their 20s,” she said.

Before adopting Chloe, Donna was deeply focused on her acting career. She had become well-known in Hollywood, starring in shows like *Knots Landing*. However, despite her success, she felt something was missing. “I was jealous every time I saw a kid run up to their mom and say ‘mommy, mommy!’” Donna once admitted.

The desire for a child grew stronger over time, and Donna knew her life wouldn’t feel complete without one. “As wonderful as my career was, as wonderful as my life was, there was a big hole,” she explained.

Putting Her Career on Hold for 18 Years
After adopting Chloe, Donna made a surprising and significant choice. She stepped away from her thriving acting career for 18 years to focus completely on being a mother. At first, Donna managed to balance both work and parenting.

During Chloe’s early years, Donna accepted roles in TV movies and took her daughter along with her wherever she went. However, when Chloe started school, Donna realized she couldn’t keep up the same pace with her career.

“I wasn’t going to go out of town for two months at a time,” Donna explained. “I didn’t become a mother to hand her over to a nanny.”

Although stepping away from the career she had worked so hard to build was a big change in her life, Donna never regretted it. She has even encouraged others to think about having children later in life, sharing her belief that it helped her be more present and focused as a mother.

“If you want to focus on your career, I believe having a child later in life is better than having one early,” she advised. For Donna, her decision to adopt Chloe at 54 gave her the chance to give motherhood her full attention, something she felt wouldn’t have been possible earlier in her career.

Donna Mills is also excited for this next chapter, knowing that the strong bond she built with Chloe will now extend to the next generation.
