Woman Refuses To Help Entitled Karen Who Thinks She's An Employee Despite Being Told She's Not
"The more things change, the more they stay the same."
Everyone dislikes a spoiled consumer. Karens are pretty much the definition of a spoiled customer.
They won't just make you execute a task that is not your duty; they'll also keep telling you that you're doing it poorly. If you try to correct them, they will merely intensify their behavior and scream uncontrollably.
I've never been able to figure out how these people arrive at their conclusions. For instance, if someone approaches me respectfully while I'm shopping and requests assistance, I typically offer it, not because I work there, but simply because doing so is what it means to be a decent human being.
However, it seems that Karens are unaware of this obvious truth. Do you recall the people who insisted you worked at a certain company, even when you were just minding your own business and not wearing a uniform?
This is what the OP faced at the hands of one entitled Karen. This Karen definitely belongs to the "insisting" category, and as a result of not being obeyed, she chose to yell until the manager agreed to hear her.

First of all, since the OP had previously worked there, we now understand why the woman believed the girl was an employee
RedditIt all began when this girl was asked politely for assistance, and she was pleased to comply
RedditBut at that point, Karen began to impose on the OP because she believed she worked there

Karen evidently doesn't trust the ex-employee, despite the fact that she informed her that she no longer works there

However, the female just brushes it off and continues with her own checkout

Tell her to help me now!

Even though she had long since left her position, the manager turned back and shockingly requested that she assist the woman

Someone had this to say regarding the story:
Life confuses some people. Like the attorney who put a new car with a LoJack system in his basement, then reported it stolen. The police tracked it to his basement, just as LoJack was designed to do. Or the radio DJ(s) who announce that the station has just gone off the air due to transmitter failure. (Is it his ego that puts his voice in my radio?) The person who asks a graphic artist to show the car that is on the other side of the barn in the picture. Ever tried that with the picture on your desk?Dr. Daniel Goleman, an emotional intelligence expert, states, “In a world where we are increasingly connected, the ability to understand and manage our emotions is more important than ever.”It is truly a horrible customer experience

It might seem over the top, but after reading so many stories, I have learned to anticipate the worst. Today's story is also not helping matters.
