Anna, a single mom of three, finally catches a break—a long-overdue

promotion after years of grinding. It’s not life-changing money, but

it’s hope. Maybe she can finally say yes to new shoes, school trips,

name-brand cereal. But her sleazy landlord Frank? He sees her LinkedIn

update and jacks the rent by $500—no improvements, just spite.“Congrats

on the raise,” he smirks. “Figured it’s time to charge you more.” Anna’s had enough.

She’s not one to go down swinging—she goes down strategizing. Quietly,

she gives her 30-day notice. Then, she posts the truth online: a working mom

punished for succeeding. The internet does the rest. Other women come forward

with horror stories. The post goes viral. A local watchdog picks it up.

TikToks are made. Frank tries to backpedal. “Let’s keep the rent the same.

” Too late. Anna finds a new home through a friend. Smaller,

but it has three real bedrooms and a backyard her son calls a “farm.”

Her new landlord brings muffins and remembers all their names. For the

first time in forever, Anna can breathe. Frank’s rental sits empty for months.

Rent slashed. Reputation tanked. Because tired moms may not fight loud—but

we fight smart. We carry diaper bags and receipts. And we remember everything.
