Betsy was having a rough day in Coronation Street. She had just lost her job at the factory, and it was definitely not how she had hoped things would turn out. This job was her first taste of work experience, and she had been under the watchful eye of Carla Connor, the factory boss. It all started a few months ago when Carla had promised to give Betsy a chance, as a favor to her mom, DS Lisa Swain.
It hadn't been smooth sailing between Carla and Betsy, with the young girl constantly getting into trouble and causing disruptions in the factory. But despite all that, her employment seemed to be more secure in recent weeks. That is, until tonight's episode when everything fell apart.
A client unexpectedly arrived at the factory, and acting manager Sally Webster was trying to get in touch with Carla, who had told her she was at a meeting in town. Betsy, who was on the phone with Sally, pointed out that Carla wouldn't be able to answer as she was in court. This confused Sally, and Betsy went on to explain that Carla was in court for causing actual bodily harm to a young boy in a hit-and-run accident.
Unfortunately, the client overheard everything and immediately decided to take their business elsewhere. It turned out that Carla was indeed in court, and Betsy was the only one who knew about it. This whole conversation was recorded on Sally's voicemail, and a furious Carla wasted no time in firing Betsy on the spot.
Her colleagues argued that it was unfair, but Betsy took it all in stride and even shouted out Carla's charge to the rest of the workers. Later, Betsy had to break the news of her dismissal to her mom, Lisa, who was not happy about it at all. She demanded to know why Betsy had lost her job, to which Betsy simply replied that Carla was "a cow" before storming off.
Lisa was determined to get to the bottom of things and went to the factory, where she found Carla trapped with the angry father of the boy she had injured. Lisa quickly sprang into action and arrested the man, before checking in on Carla to see if she was okay after the ordeal.
As a thank you for her quick thinking, Carla offered Betsy her job back, with a pay raise. Lisa was hesitant, wondering if it was right to reward bad behavior. But Carla defended Betsy, saying that she wasn't a bad person, just "gobby." And she could see where she got it from.
Now the question remains, will Betsy be able to keep her job this time around, or will something else come in the way? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure, things are never dull in Coronation Street.
