Several years ago I (then 70 m) fell & had reconstructive knee surgery on the right knee. I had to walk with a cane. I had to have a second surgery to try to improve the knee (it did) but while I was recovering I was walking in a cast. I still need the cane to hobble about. I had an appointment with my surgeon to gage progress. The office was in a mall medical tower. Since my knee was immobile I had to use a service that provided rides. Concluding the appointment I called for the pick up ride. I then limped to the glass enclosed entrance/exit area & flopped into a seat. A young Mom, with a biddy baby, asked if I was ok. I assured her I was fine & we began chatting as she too was waiting for a pick up by her husband. Abruptly, a kid tried to grab my cane. He failed & tried again. He failed & he was astonished. He yelled at me to let go. I snorted & refused. This was followed by hollers of rage. Karen looked up from her phone & in no uncertain terms told me to give my cane to her yelling son. I made it clear that was never going to happen. Karen was shocked & angered at my refusal. She narrowed her eyes & stared at me. I was wearing baggy sweat pants, over my cast, along with old comfy sweatshirt under a jacket. She then accused me a being a beggar who had come to the Mall to panhandle & trick people. At this point the young mom spoke up for me noting she had seen me limping. Things got very dark. The young mom was Latin & Karen went very racial & cruel. Many evil & shocking things were said. Suddenly, two police arrived. They had resolved some issues in the mall & were returning to their squad. They asked what was going on & Karen spewed out lies. I was a faker who grabbed her son’s toy & then tried to grab something else. The Young mom was a kidnapper because the baby was too white to be hers. The police talked to the young mom who told the awful things Karen had said to her. The cops asked me. I pulled up the sweat pants leg to show the start of my ankle to thigh cast. The police turned to Karen & told her to leave NOW or this conversation would continue at the police station. Karen was mad & muttered pointless threats. Her son yelled again he wanted my cane but they both left. The police apologized & asked for contact information in case Karen contacted their CO. Young Mom & I agreed. At this point my Minibus arrived. I left questioning human nature.
I am a smoker and I can not stand the smell of smoke. I smoke outside exclusively. Even in homes that the owners smoke inside, I refuse to smoke inside. If I don't do it at my own home, I certainly wouldn't do it in someone else's home. Just nasty.
That's smart of you. I quit 16yrs ago and for a month after people didn't believe me because I still smelled so bad. I had to repaint my interior, steam clean my carpets and furniture, wash everything at the laundromat in the big machines and get my car detailed.
@@watermellieyea well ya know washing your clothes would've taken care of that. 🙄🤷🏼♀️ I'd say not doing laundry for a MONTH....that's yuck. Showering does wonders too but do you.
Manager in a dispensary, when people say that I wanna say "this is about good vibes and obviously you ain't about that". But I don't because other customers in the store say that
The best response to "but Mom said we could!" is "Your mom lied to you." And why don't these idiots realize that the owner, if said owner isn't a total putz, will thank the worker for following the rules and regulations they agreed to when they were hired?
@Tianna Constantine I agree. Just saying that, sadly, Karens are snowflakes who will cry out trigger words like "Are you saying I'm a bad mother? How dare you question my parentage!" And other such words to gather the support of other parents who don't know what started it all. Seen it happen too many times and had it happen to me as well.
Story 4: Karen being an atheist really threw me for a loop. I really do think you hit the nail on the head where Karen wanted to just take the necklace while pretending to be Christian to find some dumb justification. Also, skulls have been used for all sorts of things, not just Satanism. Spanish people have a whole celebration about their deceased relatives involving skulls.
I love sugar skulls! I also love Dia de los Muertos. It's a beautiful holiday, with a beautiful meaning. And yes, you're absolutely right about skulls being used world wide for a variety of reasons. Even in Christianity and the Bible, I think. Don't quote me.💖😉
@@drakofox1362 oh, I'm not even going to try, I know I'll mess them up, lol!😂😂 But, I love that you try to make them! I also love most sugar skull art and figurines.
@@philiptownsend4026I suppose a non-religious equivalent would be, "Really? Do you promise?" or my personal favorite, "Way to threaten me with a good time."
The last story: Wow. That mom is off her rocker. The icing on the karma cake was that her own husband called her out on faking being a Christian just for attention. If that isn't narcissistic behavior, I don't know what is. I really hope that the kid's dad files for divorce and gets full custody. That woman sounds deeply unwell.
I am glad that she turned out to not be a Christian, as I am one, and see all kinds of stories that give Christians a bad rep. Skulls have no real connection to Satanism, outside of being used for symbolism, but many cultures also use various animal skulls for symbolism too, in particular Norse and Native (North, Central, and South) Americans. So yeah, I hate when people do that crap, and then claim they are Christians when they don't act like it.
This is why people are putting cameras in their businesses and invading their employees privacy to make sure they're not sitting and doing this kind of crap.
@Bjorn Arnesen yeah I know that but there are these people that are like so anal about having cameras watching them. Thinking its invasion or lack of trust of the owner but in reality it's to protect both the owner and the employees from outside factors.
Story 2: Some people really do act like paying money gives them privileges. Karen, EVERYONE pays money. You ain't special. You can't drive the snowmobile just because you're a paying customer. You need the gear for it
Even if she had rang the cops, she would’ve been the one in trouble. Giving permission to her children to try and ride the snowmobile. Stupid b@@h. Next she’ll be letting her children drive her car. The cop says to her why were they driving, she tells the cop that she gave them permission.
Part of the problem is Big Theme Parks here those stupid FastPass Lanes, where you pay extra on top of Outrageous entrance prices, to cut in front of poor people to get to the top of the line! A family of 5 pays over $1000 to get in then wastes half the day in long lines! Only riding half of the rides!
That was my thought. That whole situation was horrible. I can't believe none of the other employees tried contacting the owner or the police, at least anonymously before it got that bad.
@@dragonfliesnh4204 they might not have the owners contact Typically only the managers can contact the owner This isn't like a corporation where you can find the CEOs contact online, its a small business owned by a woman in another town, so the only people who probably knew the owners contact were the manager who probably lied about everything and the accountant who did what they were supposed to do in trying to contact the failing business so they don't call the owner saying "yeah this place is bankrupting you and i have no idea why"
The "I know the owner" card realistically can't work 9/10 times because it is likely the owner who set up the rules the entitled people are objecting to and wouldn't want their friends or family just shirking them.
Yeah. Plus the employees woulda been told too. So if the employee has no idea what you're talking about when you say you know the owner, they KNOW you're lying
What boggles me even more than pretending to know/be the owner, is the ones who seem to sincerely believe that they have the right to blow off the law.
Story 4: I'm an amputee. I was in a store when a boy asked me what happened to my leg. His mom looked aghast, but I looked at him and replied "I didn't eat my vegetables." Her expression quickly changed as she tried to fight back laughter. He then asked if I was going to get a robot leg. I replied, "I hope so! I have to finish my training first!" He seemed satisfied with my answer and wished me luck.
Story 3 was an owner who wasn't paying attention to their store until it was losing money. The other staff should've informed the owner about Karen before it went too far
@@melissalease5476 well they could own more than one My wife works as a jeweler at an independent jewelry store but the owner owns multiple small businesses so maybe where they live is central to all of them But they should check in regularly
I once worked at an On Cue record store (On Cue was a brand within the Musicland family that was for smaller market areas.) We had multiple customers claim to know the owner, although all stores were owned by the corporation. They were not franchises. They also claimed to be friends with a local guy who had previously owned an independent record store. They threatened to "tell Mike" if we didn't meet their ridiculous demands. They walked away pouting when we told them to go ahead since there was nothing he could do about anything we did.
The fake "I know the owner card" is always a joy to witness when it gets declined. A few years back a car hit my neighbour's parked vehicle. The driver left but when I (and some other good samaritans) caught up to him as he drove back into the area, he tried to tell me not to worry as "he knew the owner and he will make it right." Problem was, I knew the owner and offending driver clearly didn't. He got lucky though because he pulled a different card the police chose to partially accept, so they didn't pursue impairment charges; they only dealt with ensuring the crash was documented, and facilitating the exchange of driver/owner information. To their credit, though, there was a complication wherein the driver and passenger switched seats before the police arrived and other witnesses got them mixed up. The bonus was the passenger was a learner and had to be supervised by a sober person with a valid license. Total gong show.
I worked in convince store and lady started arguing about price of candy bar. She knows the owner and demanded I call owner to complain. I refused and said if you know her,you call her. Then I was going to be fired because I was rude. Once again ,she knows the owner. Well,I know the owner (worked8 years then). I asked if she'd been to her house. Of course not. Well I have been couple times for bbq. Thank goodness, owner walks in and after explaining the story,boss says no I don't know you,and you can go elsewhere for your candy.
I used to work as a zookeeper at an wildlife conservation center in Alaska. I would amaze you how many times we found parents placing their kids in our vehicles, everything from quads to tractors. And almost all of them were confused on why we wouldn't want children playing on our vehicles and equipment and there were a lot to argue that if we didn't want them then we shouldn't let them see it and it would just be parked in the parking lot. I got trouble for once pointing out that there are vehicles from other guests in the parking lot for the lady to go put her son in that if she wants them looking like he's driving. Apparently that was preposterous, but lifting her three-year-old into a running tractor wasn't
I was a kid in the fifties. Friend of mine from.high school contracted polio when he was young and used canes from when he was 10 or so. Two canes, the ones that clamp above the elbows. So, yeah, young people can use canes.
Yeah, that put me off, too ... I was in high school in the 80s and one of the girls in my class had been in an accident and had to have both kneecaps replaced. Some days she used a cane, but sometimes she had to use a walker. These are some lucky people that have never been around any sick or injured people. 🤔
Raven skull "Karen" reminds me of a time I was out with my daughter. She was wearing a t-shirt with a spinal column on it underneath her hoodie. Random Karen approaches and says "she (head jerk toward daughter) should zip up. Her shirt might scare the children." The few kids in the area were so excited about the overhyped holiday figure that adults could probably have walked naked playing bagpipes and they wouldn't have noticed. We looked at each other, eye-rolled Karen into the next zip code, and continued on our way. NOBODY KARENS!
Story 4: When the Entitled Mother started going off about "That's Satanic isn't it?" I would have looked her dead in the eyes and proudly said "Hail Satan" while throwing some rock hands. Just to see her reaction. You might not get the best response dealing with an atheist who's just pretending to be outraged but it could still be funny.
Story 3 reminds me of the video game "Have a Nice Death" where you get to play as Death, the boss of Death Inc, and beat up all your underlings who have disrespected you. Glad the owner put the entitled people in their place
I'd love for Karen to actually call the cops only to be told to call the game wardens (snow mobiles are handled by game wardens 98% of the time in most states) and that making flase reports is illegal.
S3:So why didn’t any of the other employees call the owner and complain about the karen situation? It basically took a loss of income to bring the owner into the store. The whole point of hiring people is to help the owner while being paid for your services by the owner. Seriously we’d like to think that our employees would call us and let us know what’s going on in our absence.
Story 2 is where you should counter by up and telling them they're now banned, and if they step foot on property, they will be trespassing and arrested immediately and charged in a court of law. Businesses can do that and should do it more often.
Not to mention responding, "Please, go ahead and cry all over social media... but be advised that we will respond in kind and tell everyone every detail of your entitled interaction, highlighting the fact that you were endangering your children by telling them that they were allowed to drive without any supervision."
At my last job I had one customer who wanted me to pick up something I wasn't supposed to put in the trash truck pull the "I know the owner" card. I basically told him, "yeah, the owner's a popular guy, everybody in town knows him. If he gave special privileges for that, he'd have gone out of business by now." Which isn't to say he didn't give special privileges to _anyone,_ but you basically had to be a close member of family, not just someone he met when he grabbed a snack at the local corner store.
On the last story, I honestly think Karen just wanted to take the raven skull so she could give it to her kid since he seemed to like it. She probably pretended to be Christian as an excuse to take it, otherwise why else would she pretend to be Christian and pretend she has a problem with it?
Honestly, the cover did trick me though, it really is what a over-the-top christian mom's would do. Just stupid to think that people would just give it to her. Or maybe she just thought taking stuff because she's crazy was better than being caught stealing
9:21 I'd tell her that knowingly lying to damage a person's income and business prospects is a crime, and with their recordings, they will win in court and make her pay any damages.
Karen: I told them they can. So its fine, now let them use the snowmobile Me: Oh you gave them permission. That changes everything. (proceed to tell "my kids" they are allowed to drive Karen's car) Karen: What they cant drive my car. Me: Its ok....I gave them permission. You just said if a parent gives their kid to use another person's vehicle. its perfectly fine Karen (shocked Karen Pikachu face)
It’s always the bad customers that say they’re never coming back, like it’s supposed to be a threat. “Oh, please come back! We need people to abuse us!” 🙄🙄🙄
This world has ALWAYS had them. It really hasnt changed at all... The guy who LITERALLY started the Witch Hunts including the Salem Witch Trials was a legitimate Textbook example of an Incel. In particular, Heinrich Kramer who wrote the book Malleus Maleficarum (Hammer of Witches) in 1487. Church tried to stop that pretty damn hard initially, considering it was outright Heresy, implying that GOD was not all-powerful and that any supernatural "gifts" were the spawn of Satan. But you know how that story goes...
"Those" Karens have been around for a long time. You have to understand just how "new" current technology is. Just over ten years ago, smart phones were starting to become mainstream, and during that time, phone cameras went from being a gimmick to being near professional, and the internet became accessible everywhere. All of this is to say that a lot of the really super trashy shit, like the Karen in story 4, has been around for a very long time, but is now being exposed because of advancements in tech.
I grew up in a family business and had someone try to play the "I know the owner card". I was maybe 14 so probably looked like an easy target. My dad was the sole owner and was working that day so I called him out to talk to the woman.
Story 3 - what the heck? How could this go on for so long without the Owner knowing?? It seems unbelievable that the Assistant Manager never let the Owner know what was going on!
Story 3, every time I hear a phrase involving the words Karen and thinking in the context of these videos and ones like them, I think "hope she didn't hurt her tiny brain"
Story 3: It's possible the smoking inside the nail store story occurred in Australia. A Business Activity Statement (BAS) is mandatory for all stores which has a tax commitment of AU$25k or more p.a. Each business has to submit the BAS to the Australian Tax Office (IRS if you're in the US) every quarter and pay the tax collected for that quarter. Goods and Services Tax (GST) is 10% on absolutely everything except fresh fruit and vegetables.
It's illegal to smoke in all stores and public buildings in the US. Although if someone was smoking inside, anyone including a customer can call the police, especially if you see a kid smoking. Although that whole situation wouldn't last very long here and it sounded like the issue lasted much longer than a few days.
Last story: Few things irk me more than people using religion as an excuse to do dumb or even criminal things, especially to the point of obviously harming others. Whatever religion you choose to follow should be done for YOU and nobody else. And I always tell anyone if they want to follow a good example of how a real Christian acts, to look at Weird Al Yankovic. While he has mentioned his religion occasionally in context (which is actually why none of his lyrics contain violent context or dirty words), he has always been a firm believer in letting others make their own choices as well, and he never preaches his beliefs to anyone.
Except she literally isnt even Christian, she used it as an excuse to steal the guy's necklace for her son. "THAT'S SATANIC GIVE IT TO ME I'LL CLEANSE YOU"
True I agree. Using religion as an excuse is not Okay. However, preaching and forcing are two different things. I’m a Christian and we are suppose to spread information about Jesus and the Bible. If others want to believe us or not is up to them. 🤔 Besides. Forced christianity isn’t real christianity. God knows if we believe in him or not. We have to decide for ourselves if we want to follow Jesus or not. 😁🙏🏻 I’m not a native english speaker so I hope I make sense. 😂😅
I really do agree! This is happening more and more these days because of the “Christian Nationalism”. For some reason, these people have lost their collective minds! Watch out for them! They are dangerous.
@@JGLy22086 Reminder, this person isnt even Christian, AT ALL, her husband straight up said she's Atheist. They're simply using it as an excuse to steal something her kid would be interested in for free...
@@Emsev100 I’m pagan myself, but I’d like to say to you this. “I wish I met more Christians like you.” You seem the type to actually follow the way of Christ, so good on ya and I hope it brings you joy and a good life!
The message of Jesus Christ was ruined by humans with their own agendas and biases. By all means criticize the crap out of “ Christians” but do not insult Jesus Christ and what he actually said and preached. True Christians do not follow established denominations which are mired in human bias.
Story 3: did management before and this idiot would have been thrown out after the first few in house smoking by me because I actually read all of the labor laws and has a personal do and don’t rule on my phone.
It’s sad how people are still superstitious about that sort of thing. Abandoning or stealing dark colored animals because of the perpetuated notion of them being connected to satanism. Because of this we had to put any dark colored animals inside around Halloween, and we still lost my brother’s puppy.
Story 3: "Daycare" is probably the best word for a business, or any institution, where nepotism isn't immediately stamped out, because that's what it eventually turns into for the ones abusing their power to give friends and family a free ride.
I would tell her it's not satanism, it's voodoo. I would then grip the skull, and make mystical passes at her (I would spell out "You're a dork" in ASL). See what she does then.
Story 4: “You’re already corrupting your son, by teaching him hatred and intolerance. You’re also not following the teachings of Jesus, by not turning the other cheek and not loving thy neighbor. Finally, you look too old to not be minding your own business..”
Gog forbid someone admitting they are wrong. Never admit defeat! That is how people end up alone or worse, arrested or killed. Just admit when you are wrong and actually learn from it and advance your intelligence and gain respect from others. Never admitting you are wrong will only get you left alone with no friends and you will likely get arrested and left to die alone.
Story 3: Manager sounds similar to the one I replaced. When I was an ASM (assistant store manager) I was pulled to run a store because the store manager there was so bad that the ENTIRE staff was ready to walk out. This was only done because I already HAD experience running a store (my first store) as an ASM and knew the ins and outs since I'd been with the company 6 years up to that point. So I was "transferred" to that store to run it, but was still on my first stores payroll listing. When I was there, I had several interactions with customers who were relieved that the other manager was gone. In fact, I had one lady ask if I was new and when I introduced myself as the acting manager inline to get the store, she said "oh, you mean that brown haired btch isn't here anymore? Great, I might start coming back on the regular now." Long story short, because my first store didn't promote me and brought in someone from outside who couldn't cut it, that manager left after 3 1/2 months (3 weeks of that so was on a pre-approved vacation from when she was at another store) and I had to run 2 stores as an ASM for 2 months (after already running the other store as an ASM for 1 month) before I finally got a promotion. Oh, I also had to go back and help my first store do inventory prep because literally only me and the receiving manager knew how to do it and they used the receiving manager as a whipping horse to do things she wasn't supposed to be doing. All of this done with no bonus, no thank you, no nothing.
@@philiptownsend4026 Been out of that job for almost 3 years now, but not before I had to run 2 stores again (for 2 months this time) but this time as an actual SM. Cheers.
I consider myself to be a Christian, but I would never wear a cross. Point one being that there is debate as to whether he was hung on a cross (some say that mode of torture did not start until years after his death) or a simple stake. Two, it seems morbid to worship the means of his death. If a beloved family member died by taking a bullet for you, would you wear a bullet or gun symbol around your neck to remember them by?
Years ago I work at Golden. I lit up a cigarette and was smoking them tailgate on my truck talking to a friend. I had a woman come up to me and smack the cigarette out of my mouth and yell at me telling me I was going to hell for smoking, I'm it up another cigarette by the time she got to the door I yelled at her I'd save a seat beside me because she just judge me! She went inside and bitched my manager who interned try to write me up. An officer friend was having his lunch so I strolled up him and ask him can I file assault charges because she slept a cigarette out of my mouth. He laughed and said yes the look on Karen and the managers face was priceless. Needless to say the woman did not eat there that day. And I got corporate involved because the woman was the managers friend, and I did not receive a right up. But the manager received one herself.
Story 2: I wish the owner said, "That's a good point. Let's call the police right now, because clearly this is a case of child endangerment and you are now trespassing. Also, if you post a negative review, I will sue you for libel and defamation. Plus, I'll release the video of you threatening my employees who didn't want you harming your children. I'm sure Child Protective Services would be interested in something like that."
lol Karen’s are just hilarious my family owns a chicken restaurant one Day I come in to this lady arguing with my nephew saying she wants to speak to the owner he tried to explain to her nicely but she wasn’t hearing it I just leaned back on a table behind me just watching he finally got tired of dealing with her and walked away she looks over to me and asked me for the owner I said ma’am that was the owner she said but he so young I said well my brother in law was the owner but when my nephew had his first daughter at 19 his dad gave him the store she was so embarrassed
Snowmobile story. I would probably point out to Karen that she and the kids could be arrested for attempted grand theft. I actually feel sorry for the kids being raised by that fool.
I bet the mom in the last story thought it was an actual skull (even if it was who cares) and thought that was gross. When OP said it was a metal necklace that just LOOKED like a bird skull, she couldn't back down and apologize so she used the first thing that popped into her head.
Also, the dad downplaying her behavior and calling her "a little eccentric" makes me feel so bad for the son. My dad has ALWAYS downplayed my mom's behavior and it has led to a lifetime of resentment towards the both of them.
@@Swamp_Queen He was likely too scared to get a divorce. Its the male equivalent of a spouse in an abusive relationship that's too conditioned to the behavior that they develop a sort of Stockholm Syndrome/Cognitive Dissonance defense to cope.
Personally from what i gather, considering she's not even a christian and her son'a a huge fan of birds and showed interest in the necklace. She saw it, decided her son needed it, and instead of buying one, made up the excuse of "THATS SATANIC" to make them give it to her while being "good", when she didnt get her way, she immediately starter getting even more aggressive and pushy until she was pried off and escorted out. Or: "She wanted it so it was already hers"
@@higueraft571 well maybe. The only reason why I don't agree with that is her look of hatred and disgust. Most people wouldn't think to lie about their facial features and if they do then they usually don't pull it off quite right.
I saw a couple in a restaurant pull the "We know the owner" card - yelling it at the waiter . . "The owner is a lifelong friend of ours and he will fire you - yada, yada, yada" About 10 seconds after they yelled that, a guy came and sat down at their table and started pouring himself a glass of wine from their bottle. . The couple were shocked and asked "What the F&%K do you think you're doing?" . The guy said "I'm having a drink with my lifelong friends. . I'm the restuarant owner. You know - the guy that you have been lifelong friends with. Don't you recognize me? No?. . I thought not. I don't know who you are . . You're not my friends. Finish your meal, pay your bill and leave - don't come back again"
if i know the owner of a place id never tell the rude customer or who ever it is id just let them be surprised lol when they find out lol...in a reverse Karen situation lol
I'm glad that security guard arrived when they did. They were prepared to defend themselves. I would have been too. I would have been in fight or flight because I have PTSD from abuse and one of the things my mom did was take things away from me when she was mad or didn't like me having and then discarded them. Also because of abuse if someone did as little as touch me I would get aggressive
you know what my mom would say if I asked her to use someone else's property? "don't ask me ask them it's not mine to give you permission to use!" Where has common sense gone these days?
And what do you tell your kids? Exactly, you can't afford to have kids because late stage capitalism rewards sociopathy. Common sense is in a loot crate
I'm going to assume the nail salon is NOT Vietnamese owned. A majority of the owners do not tolerate behavior like that. Reason? Losing major face in the công đông including customers. When a person hears "ĐI RA!" It's time to exercise "the better part of valor."
The woman telling that person they're "too young" to be using a cane really ticks me off! I also use a cane due to leg problems and I'm under 40. Medical equipment and health issues don't have an age limit. These people need to mind their own business.
Karen trying to let her young children drive a snowmobile. The police should have been called. She was endangering her children. Her kids are not safe with this kind of mother.
As someone not-even-middle-aged-yet, the cane thing hits a bit close to home since I have to use one. Often I use wheelchairs if provided since it's easier on my legs that way. I don't get that kinda crap often, but I do still get it and it's really obnoxious.
First story: I never did understand people causing a scene when they were already in bad standing with their landlord. When I was behind on rent, I stayed to the lease to the LETTER so that I could be in as good of grace as I could be. To this day I am sure that is the reason I was able to stay for say long after the covid restriction were lifted.
Wow that’s rich. Thanks for sharing. In my small town is full of Karens. You know divorced Karens go home to mom Karen after husband leaves. This one Karen lets her 13 year old drive her car. The mini Karen crashes the car into a bridge guardrail into the river bed. The mini Karen leave the car running and runs home. The damaged car over heats and catches fire. The bulkheads are wooden and burned too. The city sued the Karen for letting under age mini Karen drive and damaged public property, the bridge was replaced. Mom Karen, Karen, mini Karen and little future Karen had to sale their home to pay all the fines and replace the bridge. Thanks for sharing.
Well even if you do happen to actually know the owner of a store don't use that connection as a threat or intimidation strategy to get what you want at a store. Just be a respectful customer.
Story 4: "a little eccentric"~? That is the politest way I've ever heard it said that a man played (and lost) a round of FAFO by sticking it in fertile crazy.
I worked in a bar owned by two sisters. We had a "First Man", and the times some pissartist have said: I know the owner! And we replied: Oh, which one of them? Confused they explained the "regular" bartender. 🤣🤣🤣 So you don't know the owner 🤣🤣🤣 this pub have only been owned by women for nearly 100 years. The short version, when you haven't got time for giving history lessons: - I know the owner! - Funny coinsidence, so do I. And you know what? It was ME she employed to take care of her business. Now f off 😠
Story 2: I’m not one to involve the authorities unless the situation is life threatening, or I have exhausted all other means…. But I would have really considered call the cops on this lady. She let two pre-k children hop a fence, in the snow, alone, and told them they could do whatever they want….. even drive an incredibly dangerous vehicle?!!?? That’s just dangerous. Really dangerous. Man, I hope those kids anew ok.
Story 3 - I'd be more impressed with the salon owner if they hadn't waited until the accountant contacted her. It sounded like this happened over the course of a few months, and an attentive owner would have noticed problems with the drop in bookings, etc right away. The assistant manager should have contacted the owner himself instead of pitching a fit and quitting, especially with the smoking.
Re the Nail Salon Story: You would be surprised what some people can get away with when the owners are miles away and clueless. My coworker (who is salaried at 40 hours a week, has full medical and dental benefits, and takes FOUR paid vacations a year) regularly invites a friend over to watch ball games on a flat screen TV in an area that has been locked up since the Corona debacle. He swims laps (on company time ) every day in the property pool and soaks in the hot tub after. He eats lunch in a back office while ON the clock so that he can clock out for an hour later and leave property without any worries.

@@philiptownsend4026 I don't drive, and I moved in with my son just prior to the lockdown because of health problems. But if they don't at least cut this A-hole's hours to match mine, I may be willing to take a long bus ride to greener pastures.
Oh that last story was good… As an atheist myself, I’m surprised that woman would claim she’s a Christian just to get a necklace for her kid. I could never do that, I’d feel dirty… I’ve seen lots of unique jewelry on people I’ve liked, I just ask them where they got it. Most of the time they’ll tell you. Or here’s a thought, Google it! What a weird woman! And then to get in a fight about her cane?! I’ve had bad knees since I was 19… Sometimes young people need canes for whatever reason. Just because they’re young doesn’t mean they can’t have joint or bone issues. Give it up, Karen 🙄
Several years ago I (then 70 m) fell & had reconstructive knee surgery on the right knee. I had to walk with a cane. I had to have a second surgery to try to improve the knee (it did) but while I was recovering I was walking in a cast. I still need the cane to hobble about.
I had an appointment with my surgeon to gage progress. The office was in a mall medical tower. Since my knee was immobile I had to use a service that provided rides. Concluding the appointment I called for the pick up ride. I then limped to the glass enclosed entrance/exit area & flopped into a seat. A young Mom, with a biddy baby, asked if I was ok. I assured her I was fine & we began chatting as she too was waiting for a pick up by her husband.
Abruptly, a kid tried to grab my cane. He failed & tried again. He failed & he was astonished. He yelled at me to let go. I snorted & refused. This was followed by hollers of rage. Karen looked up from her phone & in no uncertain terms told me to give my cane to her yelling son. I made it clear that was never going to happen. Karen was shocked & angered at my refusal. She narrowed her eyes & stared at me. I was wearing baggy sweat pants, over my cast, along with old comfy sweatshirt under a jacket. She then accused me a being a beggar who had come to the Mall to panhandle & trick people.
At this point the young mom spoke up for me noting she had seen me limping. Things got very dark. The young mom was Latin & Karen went very racial & cruel. Many evil & shocking things were said. Suddenly, two police arrived. They had resolved some issues in the mall & were returning to their squad. They asked what was going on & Karen spewed out lies. I was a faker who grabbed her son’s toy & then tried to grab something else. The Young mom was a kidnapper because the baby was too white to be hers. The police talked to the young mom who told the awful things Karen had said to her. The cops asked me. I pulled up the sweat pants leg to show the start of my ankle to thigh cast. The police turned to Karen & told her to leave NOW or this conversation would continue at the police station. Karen was mad & muttered pointless threats. Her son yelled again he wanted my cane but they both left. The police apologized & asked for contact information in case Karen contacted their CO. Young Mom & I agreed. At this point my Minibus arrived. I left questioning human nature.
I am a smoker and I can not stand the smell of smoke. I smoke outside exclusively. Even in homes that the owners smoke inside, I refuse to smoke inside. If I don't do it at my own home, I certainly wouldn't do it in someone else's home. Just nasty.
That's smart of you. I quit 16yrs ago and for a month after people didn't believe me because I still smelled so bad. I had to repaint my interior, steam clean my carpets and furniture, wash everything at the laundromat in the big machines and get my car detailed.
Same here I do not smoke in my home or car.
@@watermellieyea well ya know washing your clothes would've taken care of that. 🙄🤷🏼♀️ I'd say not doing laundry for a MONTH....that's yuck.

Well see you are a liar. Smokers cannot smell smoke.
@6Haunted-Days clothes were in closets and drawers in the house that was smoked in, it gets every where. You do not know what you are talking about.
When Karens say "I'm nEvEr ComInG bAcK hErE aGaIn!1!11!11" The only thing that goes through my mind is "You PROMISE?"
The first word that comes to mind is "good". 😂😂
Manager in a dispensary, when people say that I wanna say "this is about good vibes and obviously you ain't about that". But I don't because other customers in the store say that
The best response to "but Mom said we could!" is "Your mom lied to you." And why don't these idiots realize that the owner, if said owner isn't a total putz, will thank the worker for following the rules and regulations they agreed to when they were hired?
"I told them they could!"
Yeah, it doesn't work that way. Get your demonspawn and LEAVE! 🤨
Your mom wants you to go to jail so she won't have to take care of you.
"Your mom lied to you" is a hot button answer, as it opens you up to having a swarm of moms mad for "telling Karen how to parent"
@Tianna Constantine I agree. Just saying that, sadly, Karens are snowflakes who will cry out trigger words like "Are you saying I'm a bad mother? How dare you question my parentage!" And other such words to gather the support of other parents who don't know what started it all. Seen it happen too many times and had it happen to me as well.
@@Maninawig Well... in answer to Karen's inevitable questions, YES. I'm saying you're a bad parent.
Story 4: Karen being an atheist really threw me for a loop. I really do think you hit the nail on the head where Karen wanted to just take the necklace while pretending to be Christian to find some dumb justification.
Also, skulls have been used for all sorts of things, not just Satanism. Spanish people have a whole celebration about their deceased relatives involving skulls.
It shocked me too, usually it's theists that'll act like that.
I love sugar skulls! I also love Dia de los Muertos. It's a beautiful holiday, with a beautiful meaning.
And yes, you're absolutely right about skulls being used world wide for a variety of reasons.
Even in Christianity and the Bible, I think. Don't quote me.💖😉
@@badkitty4922 ME TO tho whenever I try to make sugar skulls myself they never come out right at all

Honestly, I'm just surprised no on says "Oh thank god" when people use the "I'm never coming back" whine 😅
I never make reference to any gods because I don't believe in any of them.
Maybe that is why?
@@philiptownsend4026I suppose a non-religious equivalent would be, "Really? Do you promise?" or my personal favorite, "Way to threaten me with a good time."
The last story: Wow. That mom is off her rocker. The icing on the karma cake was that her own husband called her out on faking being a Christian just for attention. If that isn't narcissistic behavior, I don't know what is. I really hope that the kid's dad files for divorce and gets full custody. That woman sounds deeply unwell.
Honestly, I think she wanted the necklace for herself since she wanted OP to give it to her 😂
I am glad that she turned out to not be a Christian, as I am one, and see all kinds of stories that give Christians a bad rep. Skulls have no real connection to Satanism, outside of being used for symbolism, but many cultures also use various animal skulls for symbolism too, in particular Norse and Native (North, Central, and South) Americans. So yeah, I hate when people do that crap, and then claim they are Christians when they don't act like it.
This is why people are putting cameras in their businesses and invading their employees privacy to make sure they're not sitting and doing this kind of crap.
@Bjorn Arnesen yeah I know that but there are these people that are like so anal about having cameras watching them. Thinking its invasion or lack of trust of the owner but in reality it's to protect both the owner and the employees from outside factors.
@Riche' Wilson People used to have sex and smoke at a store I worked at in the past
Story 2: Some people really do act like paying money gives them privileges.
Karen, EVERYONE pays money. You ain't special. You can't drive the snowmobile just because you're a paying customer. You need the gear for it
Silly rabid Karens, always think they have the power to get anyone fired. Sheesh.... 🤣
@@lancerevell5979 🤭🤣😂
Even if she had rang the cops, she would’ve been the one in trouble. Giving permission to her children to try and ride the snowmobile. Stupid b@@h. Next she’ll be letting her children drive her car. The cop says to her why were they driving, she tells the cop that she gave them permission.
Part of the problem is Big Theme Parks here those stupid FastPass Lanes, where you pay extra on top of Outrageous entrance prices, to cut in front of poor people to get to the top of the line! A family of 5 pays over $1000 to get in then wastes half the day in long lines! Only riding half of the rides!
No, you need the gear to be allowed in the area. You need to be employed there to be allowed on the snowmobile. It's not part of the service.
A nail salon is stinky enough, adding disgusting cigarette smoke to it is down right toxic YUCK!!
Not to mention is a fire hazard with all the fumes.
Many of the things in a nail salon are flammable. Nail polish, monomer for acrylics, and nail polish remover. Smoking around those is dangerous.
3rd story: MK and receptionist probably werent using the false "I know the owner" card. Karen probably told them that she owned the place.
That was my thought. That whole situation was horrible. I can't believe none of the other employees tried contacting the owner or the police, at least anonymously before it got that bad.
@@dragonfliesnh4204 they might not have the owners contact
Typically only the managers can contact the owner
This isn't like a corporation where you can find the CEOs contact online, its a small business owned by a woman in another town, so the only people who probably knew the owners contact were the manager who probably lied about everything and the accountant who did what they were supposed to do in trying to contact the failing business so they don't call the owner saying "yeah this place is bankrupting you and i have no idea why"
The "I know the owner" card realistically can't work 9/10 times because it is likely the owner who set up the rules the entitled people are objecting to and wouldn't want their friends or family just shirking them.
Yeah.
Plus the employees woulda been told too.
So if the employee has no idea what you're talking about when you say you know the owner, they KNOW you're lying
And who was paying the manager's "kids"? Because the owner probably won't be writing any payroll checks for people she didn't hire.
First story.... Karen gets taught! 🤣
Story three.... Owner is a BOSS! Took out the trash! 😎
Took out the trash 🗑🤣
What boggles me even more than pretending to know/be the owner, is the ones who seem to sincerely believe that they have the right to blow off the law.
Story 4: I'm an amputee. I was in a store when a boy asked me what happened to my leg. His mom looked aghast, but I looked at him and replied "I didn't eat my vegetables." Her expression quickly changed as she tried to fight back laughter. He then asked if I was going to get a robot leg. I replied, "I hope so! I have to finish my training first!" He seemed satisfied with my answer and wished me luck.
Story 3 was an owner who wasn't paying attention to their store until it was losing money. The other staff should've informed the owner about Karen before it went too far
Yeah, Karen was a Karen, but the owner was negligent for not keeping track of what was going on in her store.
Honestly, dont know how the owner didnt come back after the competent mananger straight up LEFT
@@classyrobot5648 I doubt that Karen told the owner about that manager leaving
And she definitely should be living a little closer to her shop, instead of 4 hours away.
@@melissalease5476 well they could own more than one
My wife works as a jeweler at an independent jewelry store but the owner owns multiple small businesses so maybe where they live is central to all of them
But they should check in regularly
Story 4: OMG, that twist at the end killed me! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I once worked at an On Cue record store (On Cue was a brand within the Musicland family that was for smaller market areas.) We had multiple customers claim to know the owner, although all stores were owned by the corporation. They were not franchises.
They also claimed to be friends with a local guy who had previously owned an independent record store. They threatened to "tell Mike" if we didn't meet their ridiculous demands. They walked away pouting when we told them to go ahead since there was nothing he could do about anything we did.
The fake "I know the owner card" is always a joy to witness when it gets declined. A few years back a car hit my neighbour's parked vehicle. The driver left but when I (and some other good samaritans) caught up to him as he drove back into the area, he tried to tell me not to worry as "he knew the owner and he will make it right." Problem was, I knew the owner and offending driver clearly didn't. He got lucky though because he pulled a different card the police chose to partially accept, so they didn't pursue impairment charges; they only dealt with ensuring the crash was documented, and facilitating the exchange of driver/owner information.
To their credit, though, there was a complication wherein the driver and passenger switched seats before the police arrived and other witnesses got them mixed up. The bonus was the passenger was a learner and had to be supervised by a sober person with a valid license. Total gong show.
I worked in convince store and lady started arguing about price of candy bar. She knows the owner and demanded I call owner to complain. I refused and said if you know her,you call her. Then I was going to be fired because I was rude. Once again ,she knows the owner. Well,I know the owner (worked8 years then). I asked if she'd been to her house. Of course not. Well I have been couple times for bbq. Thank goodness, owner walks in and after explaining the story,boss says no I don't know you,and you can go elsewhere for your candy.
Story 3: When I heard of the no smoking indoors rule, I knew the Karen would break that rule.
Chekhov's gun. It was mentioned, it will get used later on.
I used to work as a zookeeper at an wildlife conservation center in Alaska. I would amaze you how many times we found parents placing their kids in our vehicles, everything from quads to tractors. And almost all of them were confused on why we wouldn't want children playing on our vehicles and equipment and there were a lot to argue that if we didn't want them then we shouldn't let them see it and it would just be parked in the parking lot. I got trouble for once pointing out that there are vehicles from other guests in the parking lot for the lady to go put her son in that if she wants them looking like he's driving. Apparently that was preposterous, but lifting her three-year-old into a running tractor wasn't
"Think, Karen!" If the thought, they wouldn't be Karens.
Story 2: I would want to call cps so bad. She willingly lets/encourages her children to do dangerous things that can harm others and themselves.
Seconded.
I was a kid in the fifties. Friend of mine from.high school contracted polio when he was young and used canes from when he was 10 or so. Two canes, the ones that clamp above the elbows. So, yeah, young people can use canes.
Yeah, that put me off, too ... I was in high school in the 80s and one of the girls in my class had been in an accident and had to have both kneecaps replaced. Some days she used a cane, but sometimes she had to use a walker. These are some lucky people that have never been around any sick or injured people. 🤔
Raven skull "Karen" reminds me of a time I was out with my daughter. She was wearing a t-shirt with a spinal column on it underneath her hoodie. Random Karen approaches and says "she (head jerk toward daughter) should zip up. Her shirt might scare the children." The few kids in the area were so excited about the overhyped holiday figure that adults could probably have walked naked playing bagpipes and they wouldn't have noticed. We looked at each other, eye-rolled Karen into the next zip code, and continued on our way. NOBODY KARENS!
That last one looks like that lady was clutching at straws to try and get her own way
Darkfluff NEVER gets old. I haven’t listened to a single story that I have ended up skipping.
Story 4: When the Entitled Mother started going off about "That's Satanic isn't it?" I would have looked her dead in the eyes and proudly said "Hail Satan" while throwing some rock hands. Just to see her reaction. You might not get the best response dealing with an atheist who's just pretending to be outraged but it could still be funny.
Story 3 reminds me of the video game "Have a Nice Death" where you get to play as Death, the boss of Death Inc, and beat up all your underlings who have disrespected you. Glad the owner put the entitled people in their place
I'd love for Karen to actually call the cops only to be told to call the game wardens (snow mobiles are handled by game wardens 98% of the time in most states) and that making flase reports is illegal.
I'm surprised one didn't just appear out of thin air. I swear, there's always a game warden around whenever you're about to do something stupid
S3:So why didn’t any of the other employees call the owner and complain about the karen situation?
It basically took a loss of income to bring the owner into the store.
The whole point of hiring people is to help the owner while being paid for your services by the owner.
Seriously we’d like to think that our employees would call us and let us know what’s going on in our absence.
Last story: it sounds like Karen missed the last train for sanity doesn't it.
Story 2 is where you should counter by up and telling them they're now banned, and if they step foot on property, they will be trespassing and arrested immediately and charged in a court of law. Businesses can do that and should do it more often.
Not to mention responding, "Please, go ahead and cry all over social media... but be advised that we will respond in kind and tell everyone every detail of your entitled interaction, highlighting the fact that you were endangering your children by telling them that they were allowed to drive without any supervision."
I don't understand how anyone thinks they are going to get away with "I know the owner". When has this ever worked?
At my last job I had one customer who wanted me to pick up something I wasn't supposed to put in the trash truck pull the "I know the owner" card. I basically told him, "yeah, the owner's a popular guy, everybody in town knows him. If he gave special privileges for that, he'd have gone out of business by now." Which isn't to say he didn't give special privileges to _anyone,_ but you basically had to be a close member of family, not just someone he met when he grabbed a snack at the local corner store.
On the last story, I honestly think Karen just wanted to take the raven skull so she could give it to her kid since he seemed to like it. She probably pretended to be Christian as an excuse to take it, otherwise why else would she pretend to be Christian and pretend she has a problem with it?
Honestly, the cover did trick me though, it really is what a over-the-top christian mom's would do. Just stupid to think that people would just give it to her.
Or maybe she just thought taking stuff because she's crazy was better than being caught stealing
The owner of the ski resort is a pretty chill guy. Imagine!
9:21
I'd tell her that knowingly lying to damage a person's income and business prospects is a crime, and with their recordings, they will win in court and make her pay any damages.
Yup, I'd also sue them for the cost of sanitizing the salon from their smoke.
Karen: I told them they can. So its fine, now let them use the snowmobile
Me: Oh you gave them permission. That changes everything. (proceed to tell "my kids" they are allowed to drive Karen's car)
Karen: What they cant drive my car.
Me: Its ok....I gave them permission. You just said if a parent gives their kid to use another person's vehicle. its perfectly fine
Karen (shocked Karen Pikachu face)
Throwing their logic back at them. An effective tactic against these idiots
And you know what they say, don't dish it out, if you can't take it.
Karen: But that's *DIFFERENT!*
It’s always the bad customers that say they’re never coming back, like it’s supposed to be a threat. “Oh, please come back! We need people to abuse us!” 🙄🙄🙄
Good customers are usually quite happy to have bad customers banned from the store.
Wow, the last story blew my mind off. Now we have these kinds of Karens? This world is messed up.
Karen's come in all shapes and sizes. Besides, its not surprising that atheist Karens exist considering they think they are god anyway.
This world has ALWAYS had them. It really hasnt changed at all...
The guy who LITERALLY started the Witch Hunts including the Salem Witch Trials was a legitimate Textbook example of an Incel.
In particular, Heinrich Kramer who wrote the book Malleus Maleficarum (Hammer of Witches) in 1487.
Church tried to stop that pretty damn hard initially, considering it was outright Heresy, implying that GOD was not all-powerful and that any supernatural "gifts" were the spawn of Satan.
But you know how that story goes...
"Those" Karens have been around for a long time. You have to understand just how "new" current technology is. Just over ten years ago, smart phones were starting to become mainstream, and during that time, phone cameras went from being a gimmick to being near professional, and the internet became accessible everywhere.
All of this is to say that a lot of the really super trashy shit, like the Karen in story 4, has been around for a very long time, but is now being exposed because of advancements in tech.
I understand the baby face thing because when I was 18 a grown man asked me if I was 10. 🤦♀️I was ticked/ stunned.
I grew up in a family business and had someone try to play the "I know the owner card". I was maybe 14 so probably looked like an easy target. My dad was the sole owner and was working that day so I called him out to talk to the woman.
Story 3 - what the heck? How could this go on for so long without the Owner knowing?? It seems unbelievable that the Assistant Manager never let the Owner know what was going on!
Story 3, every time I hear a phrase involving the words Karen and thinking in the context of these videos and ones like them, I think "hope she didn't hurt her tiny brain"
Story 3: It's possible the smoking inside the nail store story occurred in Australia. A Business Activity Statement (BAS) is mandatory for all stores which has a tax commitment of AU$25k or more p.a. Each business has to submit the BAS to the Australian Tax Office (IRS if you're in the US) every quarter and pay the tax collected for that quarter. Goods and Services Tax (GST) is 10% on absolutely everything except fresh fruit and vegetables.
It's illegal to smoke in all stores and public buildings in the US. Although if someone was smoking inside, anyone including a customer can call the police, especially if you see a kid smoking. Although that whole situation wouldn't last very long here and it sounded like the issue lasted much longer than a few days.
@@dragonfliesnh4204 Absolutely. It's illegal to smoke inside stores and public buildings here, as well.
Last story: Few things irk me more than people using religion as an excuse to do dumb or even criminal things, especially to the point of obviously harming others. Whatever religion you choose to follow should be done for YOU and nobody else. And I always tell anyone if they want to follow a good example of how a real Christian acts, to look at Weird Al Yankovic. While he has mentioned his religion occasionally in context (which is actually why none of his lyrics contain violent context or dirty words), he has always been a firm believer in letting others make their own choices as well, and he never preaches his beliefs to anyone.
Except she literally isnt even Christian, she used it as an excuse to steal the guy's necklace for her son.
"THAT'S SATANIC GIVE IT TO ME I'LL CLEANSE YOU"
True I agree. Using religion as an excuse is not Okay.
However, preaching and forcing are two different things.
I’m a Christian and we are suppose to spread information about Jesus and the Bible. If others want to believe us or not is up to them. 🤔
Besides. Forced christianity isn’t real christianity. God knows if we believe in him or not. We have to decide for ourselves if we want to follow Jesus or not. 😁🙏🏻
I’m not a native english speaker so I hope I make sense. 😂😅
I really do agree! This is happening more and more these days because of the “Christian Nationalism”. For some reason, these people have lost their collective minds! Watch out for them! They are dangerous.
@@JGLy22086 Reminder, this person isnt even Christian, AT ALL, her husband straight up said she's Atheist.

@@Emsev100 I’m pagan myself, but I’d like to say to you this.
“I wish I met more Christians like you.”

There is no hate quite like "christian love"
TM - I am a Christian, but you are right! Way too much hateful rhetoric is spewed in the name of religion. Sad for us all.
They weren't even Christian in the end.
Beautiful statement and so true.
Yep. Sometimes the most kind people wear black and have tattoos. The most vile people go to church on Sunday. Never judge a book by its cover.
The message of Jesus Christ was ruined by humans with their own agendas and biases. By all means criticize the crap out of “ Christians” but do not insult Jesus Christ and what he actually said and preached. True Christians do not follow established denominations which are mired in human bias.
Story 3: did management before and this idiot would have been thrown out after the first few in house smoking by me because I actually read all of the labor laws and has a personal do and don’t rule on my phone.
that's how i got my 3 black kittens... the ultra-christian family that owned the mother were yelling how these 3 cuties were demonic and satanic.
It’s sad how people are still superstitious about that sort of thing. Abandoning or stealing dark colored animals because of the perpetuated notion of them being connected to satanism. Because of this we had to put any dark colored animals inside around Halloween, and we still lost my brother’s puppy.
Story 3: "Daycare" is probably the best word for a business, or any institution, where nepotism isn't immediately stamped out, because that's what it eventually turns into for the ones abusing their power to give friends and family a free ride.
Story #4 : the 'atheist' who screamed about Satanic actions 😂😂😂
Story 4: as a satanist, bird skulls have nothing to do with Satanism, what was she even on about?? 😭
I would tell her it's not satanism, it's voodoo. I would then grip the skull, and make mystical passes at her (I would spell out "You're a dork" in ASL). See what she does then.
Story 4: “You’re already corrupting your son, by teaching him hatred and intolerance. You’re also not following the teachings of Jesus, by not turning the other cheek and not loving thy neighbor. Finally, you look too old to not be minding your own business..”
I wonder what Jesus would think of how women named Karen are treated?
Gog forbid someone admitting they are wrong. Never admit defeat! That is how people end up alone or worse, arrested or killed. Just admit when you are wrong and actually learn from it and advance your intelligence and gain respect from others. Never admitting you are wrong will only get you left alone with no friends and you will likely get arrested and left to die alone.
Story 3: Manager sounds similar to the one I replaced. When I was an ASM (assistant store manager) I was pulled to run a store because the store manager there was so bad that the ENTIRE staff was ready to walk out. This was only done because I already HAD experience running a store (my first store) as an ASM and knew the ins and outs since I'd been with the company 6 years up to that point. So I was "transferred" to that store to run it, but was still on my first stores payroll listing. When I was there, I had several interactions with customers who were relieved that the other manager was gone. In fact, I had one lady ask if I was new and when I introduced myself as the acting manager inline to get the store, she said "oh, you mean that brown haired btch isn't here anymore? Great, I might start coming back on the regular now."
Long story short, because my first store didn't promote me and brought in someone from outside who couldn't cut it, that manager left after 3 1/2 months (3 weeks of that so was on a pre-approved vacation from when she was at another store) and I had to run 2 stores as an ASM for 2 months (after already running the other store as an ASM for 1 month) before I finally got a promotion.
Oh, I also had to go back and help my first store do inventory prep because literally only me and the receiving manager knew how to do it and they used the receiving manager as a whipping horse to do things she wasn't supposed to be doing.
All of this done with no bonus, no thank you, no nothing.
Hey Andrew, it sounds as if you ought to be looking for a better job. Don't be exploited and abused.

There’s nothing wrong with wearing a raven skull necklace and has nothing to do with religious stuff whatsoever.
Apparently skulls are inappropriate but a stone age torture device to wholesome for kids?
(Crucifix)
I hadn't thought of that. Good point. I shall remember and use that if/when I need to.
I consider myself to be a Christian, but I would never wear a cross. Point one being that there is debate as to whether he was hung on a cross (some say that mode of torture did not start until years after his death) or a simple stake. Two, it seems morbid to worship the means of his death. If a beloved family member died by taking a bullet for you, would you wear a bullet or gun symbol around your neck to remember them by?
@@rhondaflesher8313 I'm an atheist but I know a good response when I see one lady.
Years ago I work at Golden. I lit up a cigarette and was smoking them tailgate on my truck talking to a friend. I had a woman come up to me and smack the cigarette out of my mouth and yell at me telling me I was going to hell for smoking, I'm it up another cigarette by the time she got to the door I yelled at her I'd save a seat beside me because she just judge me! She went inside and bitched my manager who interned try to write me up. An officer friend was having his lunch so I strolled up him and ask him can I file assault charges because she slept a cigarette out of my mouth. He laughed and said yes the look on Karen and the managers face was priceless. Needless to say the woman did not eat there that day. And I got corporate involved because the woman was the managers friend, and I did not receive a right up. But the manager received one herself.
Story 2: I wish the owner said, "That's a good point. Let's call the police right now, because clearly this is a case of child endangerment and you are now trespassing.
Also, if you post a negative review, I will sue you for libel and defamation. Plus, I'll release the video of you threatening my employees who didn't want you harming your children. I'm sure Child Protective Services would be interested in something like that."
lol Karen’s are just hilarious my family owns a chicken restaurant one Day I come in to this lady arguing with my nephew saying she wants to speak to the owner he tried to explain to her nicely but she wasn’t hearing it I just leaned back on a table behind me just watching he finally got tired of dealing with her and walked away she looks over to me and asked me for the owner I said ma’am that was the owner she said but he so young I said well my brother in law was the owner but when my nephew had his first daughter at 19 his dad gave him the store she was so embarrassed
Snowmobile story. I would probably point out to Karen that she and the kids could be arrested for attempted grand theft.
I actually feel sorry for the kids being raised by that fool.
Well the owner deserved it for hiring a Karen and not checking in once in a while
I bet the mom in the last story thought it was an actual skull (even if it was who cares) and thought that was gross. When OP said it was a metal necklace that just LOOKED like a bird skull, she couldn't back down and apologize so she used the first thing that popped into her head.
Also, the dad downplaying her behavior and calling her "a little eccentric" makes me feel so bad for the son. My dad has ALWAYS downplayed my mom's behavior and it has led to a lifetime of resentment towards the both of them.
@@Swamp_Queen He was likely too scared to get a divorce. Its the male equivalent of a spouse in an abusive relationship that's too conditioned to the behavior that they develop a sort of Stockholm Syndrome/Cognitive Dissonance defense to cope.
Personally from what i gather, considering she's not even a christian and her son'a a huge fan of birds and showed interest in the necklace.
She saw it, decided her son needed it, and instead of buying one, made up the excuse of "THATS SATANIC" to make them give it to her while being "good", when she didnt get her way, she immediately starter getting even more aggressive and pushy until she was pried off and escorted out.
Or: "She wanted it so it was already hers"
@@higueraft571 well maybe. The only reason why I don't agree with that is her look of hatred and disgust. Most people wouldn't think to lie about their facial features and if they do then they usually don't pull it off quite right.
Story 2: I hope the owner posts the footage in response to every negative comment she makes online
I saw a couple in a restaurant pull the "We know the owner" card - yelling it at the waiter . . "The owner is a lifelong friend of ours and he will fire you - yada, yada, yada"
About 10 seconds after they yelled that, a guy came and sat down at their table and started pouring himself a glass of wine from their bottle. .
The couple were shocked and asked "What the F&%K do you think you're doing?" . The guy said "I'm having a drink with my lifelong friends. . I'm the restuarant owner. You know - the guy that you have been lifelong friends with. Don't you recognize me? No?. . I thought not. I don't know who you are . . You're not my friends. Finish your meal, pay your bill and leave - don't come back again"
if i know the owner of a place id never tell the rude customer or who ever it is id just let them be surprised lol when they find out lol...in a reverse Karen situation lol
I'm glad that security guard arrived when they did. They were prepared to defend themselves. I would have been too. I would have been in fight or flight because I have PTSD from abuse and one of the things my mom did was take things away from me when she was mad or didn't like me having and then discarded them. Also because of abuse if someone did as little as touch me I would get aggressive
you know what my mom would say if I asked her to use someone else's property?
"don't ask me ask them it's not mine to give you permission to use!"
Where has common sense gone these days?
And what do you tell your kids? Exactly, you can't afford to have kids because late stage capitalism rewards sociopathy. Common sense is in a loot crate
I'm going to assume the nail salon is NOT Vietnamese owned. A majority of the owners do not tolerate behavior like that. Reason? Losing major face in the công đông including customers. When a person hears "ĐI RA!" It's time to exercise "the better part of valor."
To whoever reads this, I hope you're having a wonderful day.
I hope you do too!
The woman telling that person they're "too young" to be using a cane really ticks me off! I also use a cane due to leg problems and I'm under 40. Medical equipment and health issues don't have an age limit. These people need to mind their own business.
I tell the husband he needs to get a divorce or get her on medication.
Karen trying to let her young children drive a snowmobile. The police should have been called. She was endangering her children. Her kids are not safe with this kind of mother.
Story 3... ooof. Bad management almost ran that store into the ground!
As someone not-even-middle-aged-yet, the cane thing hits a bit close to home since I have to use one. Often I use wheelchairs if provided since it's easier on my legs that way.
I don't get that kinda crap often, but I do still get it and it's really obnoxious.
First story: I never did understand people causing a scene when they were already in bad standing with their landlord. When I was behind on rent, I stayed to the lease to the LETTER so that I could be in as good of grace as I could be. To this day I am sure that is the reason I was able to stay for say long after the covid restriction were lifted.
It's probably even more annoying when the Karen claims to be the owner than when she's simply says she knows the owner
Awesome session!!! What a twist to the last story. 🙊
Wow that’s rich. Thanks for sharing. In my small town is full of Karens. You know divorced Karens go home to mom Karen after husband leaves. This one Karen lets her 13 year old drive her car. The mini Karen crashes the car into a bridge guardrail into the river bed. The mini Karen leave the car running and runs home. The damaged car over heats and catches fire. The bulkheads are wooden and burned too. The city sued the Karen for letting under age mini Karen drive and damaged public property, the bridge was replaced. Mom Karen, Karen, mini Karen and little future Karen had to sale their home to pay all the fines and replace the bridge. Thanks for sharing.
Well even if you do happen to actually know the owner of a store don't use that connection as a threat or intimidation strategy to get what you want at a store. Just be a respectful customer.
Story 4: "a little eccentric"~? That is the politest way I've ever heard it said that a man played (and lost) a round of FAFO by sticking it in fertile crazy.
Story 2: she wasn’t a paying customer. She isn’t skiing, she isn’t paying for the snowmobile. She is a pain customer though.
And she can't pay for the snowmobile, it's for employees only.
I worked in a bar owned by two sisters. We had a "First Man", and the times some pissartist have said:
I know the owner! And we replied: Oh, which one of them? Confused they explained the "regular" bartender.
🤣🤣🤣 So you don't know the owner 🤣🤣🤣 this pub have only been owned by women for nearly 100 years.
The short version, when you haven't got time for giving history lessons:
- I know the owner!
- Funny coinsidence, so do I. And you know what? It was ME she employed to take care of her business.
Now f off 😠
If wearing a metal skull is satanic, what does she think wearing a dead body on a cross is?
Story 3: it's funny because Karen actually became the vary thing she swore to destroy, and BOI, did she destroy
Story 2: I’m not one to involve the authorities unless the situation is
life threatening, or I have exhausted all other means…. But I would have really considered call the cops on this lady. She let two pre-k children hop a fence, in the snow, alone, and told them they could do whatever they want….. even drive an incredibly dangerous vehicle?!!?? That’s just dangerous. Really dangerous. Man, I hope those kids anew ok.
The Christian part made me laugh, lmao
Hey darkfluff how was your day so far? I hope Steve is doing great, too. I hope everyone is doing great
Hope you all have a nice wonderful day everybody
Story 3 - I'd be more impressed with the salon owner if they hadn't waited until the accountant contacted her. It sounded like this happened over the course of a few months, and an attentive owner would have noticed problems with the drop in bookings, etc right away. The assistant manager should have contacted the owner himself instead of pitching a fit and quitting, especially with the smoking.
The first Karen should’ve been arrested for attempted grand theft of a snowmobile.
Re the Nail Salon Story: You would be surprised what some people can get away with when the owners are miles away and clueless. My coworker (who is salaried at 40 hours a week, has full medical and dental benefits, and takes FOUR paid vacations a year) regularly invites a friend over to watch ball games on a flat screen TV in an area that has been locked up since the Corona debacle. He swims laps (on company time ) every day in the property pool and soaks in the hot tub after. He eats lunch in a back office while ON the clock so that he can clock out for an hour later and leave property without any worries. His only duty that seems to get monitored at all is ordering monthly supplies, and he has gone on vacation more than once without doing THAT before he left! Meanwhile, I (a part-time grunt who works holidays, covers all of his vacations, and does all of the duties he is SUPPOSED TO DO) have no benefits, no PTO, no thank yous, and have to live with my grown son for lack of a decent paycheck.
There are so many places hiring right now, start looking for something new, as soon as you find somewhere that appreciates you put in that 2 week notice, or just quit. They will realize what they had once you're gone.
May I suggest you look for a better job?
@@philiptownsend4026 I don't drive, and I moved in with my son just prior to the lockdown because of health problems. But if they don't at least cut this A-hole's hours to match mine, I may be willing to take a long bus ride to greener pastures.
She could have said ah neat necklace where dud you get it
But that would be reasonable sane behaviour...
Why oh why can’t people just mind their own business?
I think I have the bird skull necklace mentioned in the story. If so it's a gold skull with red eyes with a small chain for the necklace.
I agree on the Last story, mother was definitely trying to steal the necklace, and possibly the cane for herself.
Oh that last story was good… As an atheist myself, I’m surprised that woman would claim she’s a Christian just to get a necklace for her kid. I could never do that, I’d feel dirty… I’ve seen lots of unique jewelry on people I’ve liked, I just ask them where they got it. Most of the time they’ll tell you. Or here’s a thought, Google it! What a weird woman! And then to get in a fight about her cane?! I’ve had bad knees since I was 19… Sometimes young people need canes for whatever reason. Just because they’re young doesn’t mean they can’t have joint or bone issues. Give it up, Karen 🙄
