Unfortunately, Karens are not yet a thing of the past, and those who work in customer service of any kind can personally vouch for that. In fact, a lot of people regardless of what industry they're in can vouch for that. Karens have become so mainstream that there is hardly a person who hasn't run into one of them in the 'wild', at least once or twice. Sure, there are some places you're more likely to bump into them, but today nowhere is safe. You wanna go for a walk with your dog? There might be a Karen telling you that your dog is making faces at her. You wanna get a burger? Yep, there's a Karen screaming at a poor employee who simply doesn't get paid enough to deal with her bullsh*t. We've come to recognize them from a distance. It's something about the hair, the clothes, and the attitude in their walk… and sometimes we're pleasantly surprised by people who look like Karens, but aren't. As the old popular saying goes, you can't always judge a book by its cover ;) If you've ever had the unfortunate experience of meeting one, you'll enjoy this list of memes.
