Karen Yells At The Cashier, Attacks The Manager, Gets Arrested
As defined by Wikimedia, the epithet "Karen" is used to denigrate white women who are seen as being overly entitled or demanding. The phrase is frequently used in memes showing white women demanding their own way due to their white privilege. Examples of depictions include asking to "speak to the manager," displaying racism, or wearing a certain bob haircut.
The anecdote, according to the OP, happened when they were a grocery clerk. A consumer needed the supermarket's complex and time-consuming "delivery process" to handle a massive order. They attempted to create the impression that there would be a long wait by turning to the rest of the customers waiting in line. Of course, Karens will never comprehend such a demand. As Karen lost her mind, the incident spiraled out of control.

Dealing with Karen is not easy. Some people even advise that people should not find a way to cope with them. Don’t. Why do they say that? The reason is simple. You cannot win. Karens are self-enclosed individuals. They feel as though the world owes them something. They believe that they and only they know how the world should function.
Or the ones worst of all. They are those who are prejudiced. They attack because they are so frightened of losing to the minority.
Be the bigger person. Walk away and file report. Most likely, nothing will change. But at least witnesses will see actual class.
