English term or phrase: Except. Because of Carol's indelicacy right out of high school,
-I was doing fine until my father shredded his foot with the wheat combine
-of swine breeder's syndrome

Texto

But all that happened about twenty years ago. I'm a mature man, forgive and forget. Except. Because of Carol's indelicacy right out of high school, Chuck's father took him immediately into the family business and made him a junior executive. Meantime, I went off to college where I was doing fine until my father shredded his foot with the wheat combine and my mother took ill with a rare type of swine breeder's syndrome and I had to come home to help out. There's only one place off a farm in Stimson to work: the Walaach School Bus Body Manufacturing Plant.

Explanation:
Creo que hay un problema de puntuación. Además habría que aclarar si es Carol la que informa al narrador del puesto de Chuck en la empresa de su padre. De todos modos te doy sugerenci y añado comas.

Pero todo eso pasó hace ya casi 20 años. Soy un hombre maduro, olvido y perdono. Con una excepción. Por la falta de tino de Carol (Por la impertinencia de Carol) (Punto o coma) nada más terminar el bachillerato, el padre de Chuck lo puso a trabajar en la empresa familiar
(Es Carol la que le informa del trabajo de Chuck en el negocio de su padre?
