I smell nepotism! As we know, it's alive and well no matter what industry you're in. As we also know, Karens are alive and well in every industry too. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/F***YouKaren subreddit by u/LUNA_FOOD, who shared her experience of getting fired by a young entitled Karen.

 

This Redditor was just doing their job when they gave the young Karen some guidance to be more welcoming to hotel guests. Young Karen did not take it well and literally burst into tears. She just so happened to be friends with the daughter of the owner, so you can just guess what happened next. Thankfully, the Redditor revealed that they got a much better job elsewhere. Good riddance!

    Font - Young Karen got me fired! I was working as a receptionist in a 4* hotel, I was a shift leader, and we get this new trainee girl, she was smart and pretty, but also very arrogant, she would never greet guests coming into the hotel, rarely say thank you or please, etc.

    Font - She was very bossy especially with the other trainees almost bullying them, she seemed to get very well along with the upper management tho, couldn't explain while at first, she was a true brat. She also had this very flirty attitude with anyone who was above her, including me.

    Font - One day I just couldn't take anymore and I asked in a very polite but firm tone, to please greet our guests, we are the face of the hotel and we are selling hospitality, it's the ABC of our work. She burst out crying like I murdered her puppy, crying, crying like a toddler, long story short I was asked by my superior to apologize to her for my harsh treatment. But I firmly refused, there was absolutly nothing to apologize for

    Font - Later I found out that she was the daughter of a close friend of the owner of the Hotel, which explained the golden child mystery, my contract was about to expire, and guess what it wasn't renewed so they could fire me without even firing me, their loss I got a much better job after that I wouldn't have found if I stayed there. I just can't imagine the toxic Karen she will grow out to be

    Font - The Bright Nights - 8 hr. ago I hate places that let their relative work there when they're terrible at it. If they get treated like any other employee then I'm fine with it.

    Font - LUNA_FOOD OP. 4 hr. ago Most of time they are trash but also I met not few instances where this was the opposite, once I was in a luxury wine resort in the Italian countryside the whole owner family worked there, but I have to say it was a true pleasure, really hard working and positive people, always getting their hands dirty as much as yours, demanded a lot but treated you like one of their own, and paid well.

    Font - red-submarine 3 hr. ago A long time ago I worked in the casino department on cruise ships. We had to be strict with carding people but, of course, very polite. One evening I asked to see the ID of a girl who appeared to be too young to be in there. She immediately went mental and screamed at me that she'd already been carded last night and we should share info and "don't card me again" yada yada.

    Font - Well, what she didn't know was that on the last night of the cruise all passengers leave their packed bags outside of their cabin and some guys go round and tag them for whichever airport they're flying to the next day. This gets rid of them all before disembarkation, which is busy and space is at a premium. It's a good system.

    Font - So, whenever someone we would gave us just find out which cabin they were in from one of the friendly pursers, wait until the last night after the bags had been tagged, and then go and re-tag them. In this instance she and her family were flying to Washington DC, so we sent all their shit to Narita (Japan). I don't know if they ever got it back but, young lady, if you're reading this l you, you noisy little :)

    Font - RoyallyOakie 4 hr. ago I'm glad that you recovered from that. I hate when people drop their entitled adult children at my place of work to be babysat.

    Font - LUNA_FOOD OP. 4 hr. ago In hospitality you see many, once as free lance we were doing a house keeping class i one of the most expensive hotel in Milano, the little 17y old son of the owner arrived after school shouting at the chef that his food needed to be ready, slamming his hand on the kitchen counter, no words

    Font - Raihanlhan Their lose, they've thrown away you away who is an experienced employee and competent at you job, for an impolite suck up brat who doesn't seem to know what her own job entails. I suspect they might be crawling back to you soon enough . 4 hr. ago

    Font - littlelostangeles. 20 min. ago What a bunch of idiots. Not only did they lose you, but they're keeping a brat who's rude to the guests. They're going to lose a lot of business.
