There’s nothing more satisfying than seeing Karens realize they’re already speaking to the manager. After all, it’s a demand that’s often associated with people presenting entitled behavior.
In this situation, someone came in to argue with the first person they saw. What they didn’t know was that they were actually fighting with the store’s owner. They even acquiesced to fetching the manager, only to let them break the news after this Karen demanded the owner was fired.
Using Reviews to Their Advantage
If there’s one thing that Karens are more than happy to do online, it’s to leave a review. Sometimes, they’re just unnecessary or they dock a business for something out of their control.
Some businesses know how to make these reviews work in their favor. In fact, this coffee shop decided they’d tell everyone. The best way to do this was to use their sign outside to invite people in for the “worst coffee one woman on TripAdvisor had in her life.”
No One’s Changing the Rules
Karens often assume the rules don’t apply to them. This can put them in a lot of unnecessary head-to-head battles with unsuspecting business owners and their employees.
This is another Karen that took to the internet with their claims. In their review, they bashed the store for not letting them in with their dog. Not taking this lying down, the owner publicly informed them that it was posted on the website and both entrances. It had been for a while at this point!
Asking for It for Free
This conversation started off normally enough – it seemed like an easy way to nab a microwave. However, the would-be buyer kept inserting her kids into the conversation without much reason.
The Karen plan came to light when the seller asked when they could pick up the microwave. That’s when she insisted they needed to bring it to her since she had kids. Once they refused, they reverted to demanding a discount or additional item to “make it worth their time.”
Inappropriate Outbursts
When someone has a guide dog, there are a few rules of etiquette. Many of them boil down to a major point: you should never interfere with a guide dog doing their job.
All this woman wanted to do was ride the bus when someone, not affiliated with the bus company, demanded that she take her dog off the bus. She even tried to politely explain the dog’s presence. Yet, as well-informed as an average outburst from Karens are, the woman claimed that it wasn’t because it wasn’t yellow.
