In the world of consumerism, the economy needs customers to grow and thrive, so “The customer is always right” has become a familiar slogan. Unfortunately, this statement has resulted in many entitled people who are self-obsessed and want others to comply with their orders unconditionally.

A Reddit user shared his experience with an entitled Karen on the subreddit
IdontWorkHereLady, and the way he encountered her earned praise from the public.
The poster was an employee of a Kroger store, and he often visited a local farm store to buy necessary stuff for the
animals his family raised. As he dropped by the shop after work, he still wore his uniform, which made the Karen mistake him for the store’s staff.

The woman thought the Redditor was an employee at the store, so she asked him to help her a few times. However, instead of having a polite attitude, she was rude and aggressive whenever she asked for help. The Reddit user was courteous at first, but then he couldn’t stand her awful manner and yelled at her.

The woman took offense at his words and left angrily. The poster thought it was all until he was startled by that woman on the way to the checkout. It turned out that Karen had complained about the guy to the store manager. She showed up with the manager to require the Redditor to apologize to her for his disrespectful behavior.

When the poster refused to admit his fault and roasted the woman in front of others, the Karen blew up on him. She wanted the manager to dismiss the guy immediately. However, the manager knew the Redditor was a regular customer, which meant there was no way he could be fired.

The Reddit user mocked the woman for her mistake while encouraging the store manager to fire him and put an end to this ridiculous situation.

After being “fired”, the guy told Karen that he had been dismissed three times this week, so he hoped she was content with that. Many people in the store laughed at this strange situation. On the other hand, the woman was so embarrassed that she dropped the jeans she was holding and stormed out of the shop.

Most netizens felt happy with this ending. They stated the woman was horrible and ignorant, and even without the poster’s help, she still managed to humiliate herself.

Nonetheless, some wondered why the Reddit user didn’t explain to the woman that he wasn’t a worker at the farm store from the beginning. That seemed to be the best way to prevent further conflicts between them.
