    I unfortunately wore my orange shirt into Home Depot. An older gentleman asked me about lumber. I knew the answer and helped him pick out a 2x4. Then an older woman required something that I could reach but she couldn’t. A real employee, Todd, came over and said the store was hiring. He mentioned about a referral bonus. I took his name and told a friend who was interested in seasonal work. The next time I went into the store Todd was there. He received his referral bonus for my friend and gave me his employee discount.

      Omg when I heard her say Ativan I went into a panic. An ex-girlfriend of mine took that. My ex’s panic attack would come with asthma attacks and blood sugar crashes. To put it mildly if she had a panic attack she was going to the hospital. Between the asthma attack and the blood sugar crash she would pass out, because you couldn’t calm her down. If the cops put my ex in handcuffs they would have been wheeling her out in a body bag. My ex has been assaulted before, not for ignoring people, but just because she was with me and another woman. (Yes we had a three way relationship, don’t judge) I recently submitted the story. It was really disgusting and both of my girlfriends at the time went to the hospital, meanwhile I went to the police station along with the attackers. My ex and I don’t talk anymore but the last time I saw her she was married with 2 kids and looked great. I am happy for her.

      You're right. I've known people like this. I used to be friends with someone and I tried to help her see that you can't treat people the way she did. Mind you she was 20 plus years older than me. I then being in my twenties shouldn't have had to explain to a woman in her 40s that she can't be a selfish butthole. She had no respect for boundaries, had no empathy, the only standards she had were double standards. I'm sure you get the idea. The only time she ever felt bad about anything was when people discovered what she was really like. She would then ghost everyone on social media and then resurface with a new found outlook on life. I saw her go through many phases of being “a changed person” but she always went right back to being the nasty vile stuck up witch with a capital B that she truly is. The reason why they stay the way they are is because they are incapable of looking within themselves and seeing where they need to change. In their mind, they are perfect and everyone else is inferior to them.

      I live near a small town that has a large gated retirement community. When I go shopping there, I look for elderly people who obviously need help reaching something, or lifting a case of water, etc. Often, they ask me because I'm tall. I'm a woman in my 60s, so it won't be long that I will need assistance. I feel that I'm less scary than a strange man offering help. Who knows, maybe we really do score karma points!

    In one village, my group was eating in a restaurant when I noticed an American--not a part of our group--berating the poor waitress because *she* couldn't speak English! I got pissed at his arrogance and ignorance (I was 16 and didn't care what anyone thought at that moment), and I went over to his table. I asked him what he wanted, pointing out items on the menu and ordered for him. I apologized to the waitress, and told her not all Americans were this rude.

    I have strict personal rules for myself of when I will never, ever go places.l just because of incidents like these. My wife knows never to ask me to do any of these. Ever.
    1. Visit any grocery store between the Saturday before Thanksgiving and the end of Thanksgiving day, the Saturday before Christmas through the end of Christmas Day, and the Saturday just before Easter.
    2. Visit any retail establishment any weekend from Thanksgiving Day through Christmas, or any day from the Saturday before Christmas through the day after Christmas.
    3. Visit a Disney park during any major holiday period.
    4. I used to also have a rule to never to go near a theater (including any nearby stores) during opening weekend of a major blockbuster film, but since most theaters have reserved seating that you buy online now, which means the line to get the best seats no longer happens, this rule no longer applies.
    By contrast, I absolutely LOVE visiting the grocery store on Black Friday. You honestly can't get better deals on food than that day. Seems to be a secret that most people don't want to spread. Aisles are wide and deserted, carts are plentiful, and what are often considered Thanksgiving staples are deeply discounted. I've been able to get as much as 85% off a whole fresh turkey!

      @@sallyshort7255 That's funny. At my last job there was a guy who would get iced coffee at lunch and he'd walk by me and stick out his coffee and shake it at me and laugh because he knew it grossed me out until I told him to be on his way, lol.

    Dark Fluff, I agree with you. I am sick und tired of hearing stories of Karen's & Kevin's attacking someone, just because they thought they were an employee. Und then trying to play the victim. Und when they realize that *THEIR* actions have been captured on CCTV security cameras. They're suddenly all, "we don't need to involve the police." Because they know *FULL* well that they have screwed up in a major way.
    I firmly believe that the *ONLY* way that these people are going to learn is to spend time in court & jail.

      I've heard multiple stories of Karen's child (usually a teenager, or nearly so) being horribly embarrassed about mom/dad's behavior, and just wanting to gtfo of there.

    Thankfully, I haven’t had to deal with a real Karen as of yet. The few times I’ve been mistaken for a store employee, I was able to say “sorry, but I don’t work here.” And people would back down.
    I’ll answer questions if I can, but that’s about the extent of the situation in the vast majority of cases.
