A woman in Dadukou district, Chongqing municipality, was perplexed and upset after her father forced her to leave her job so she could get a severance bonus.

Zhang Ping, 39, replaced her father at the company after he retired in 1992. On Monday, she gave him 300 yuan ($44) as a 70th birthday gift.

However, the man complained it was too little especially since he gave her his job, and he demanded more.

He asked her to leave the job and turn over her separation pay of 28,000 yuan over to him.
