Woman Reports Teenager Using Her Dad’s Credit Card to the Cashier and Faces the Wrath of the Internet
Both her husband and the cashier thought she was wrong, so now she asks the internet for a verdict.
We don’t know what the OP is called, but let’s call her Karen.
While shopping with her husband at Bloomingdale’s, she overheard two girls talking, and one of them told her friend that she could buy an expensive pair of boots she saw because she had her dad’s card with her.
At the checkout (entirely accidentally), OP found herself behind those girls. After she (totally unintentionally) saw that the total was over $1,000, she just couldn’t keep quiet and told the cashier that the card belonged to the girl’s dad.
Knowing that the girl was not the card owner, the cashier couldn’t let her use the card, despite the girl insisting she had her dad’s permission and that he wanted the points.
The girl was near tears, angry, and used her own card…
The OP appears surprised that both the cashier and her husband believed she acted wrongly.
She will be even more surprised when she finds out that the vast majority of people on the subreddit Am I The A**hole think that she most likely is.
People are unanimous: Karen should mind her own business.
It appears that the verdict is: YTA (You’re the A**hole).
Is other people’s business my business, and why not?
Many people are asking if she would have reported the girl if the amount had been much lower. Was she, in fact, jealous?
It is hard not to agree with the majority. Nobody likes people who stick their noses in other people’s business.
What do you think? Was she right or wrong?
