‘Whenever a customer is rude to me… I just sing to them’: Store manager uses a harmonica and sings to Karen customers whenever they throw a tantrum

When Karens go full Karen, their tantrum is even worse than a terrible-two-year-old's. So why stoop to their level? Don't let the hate from entitled and rude customers get you all worked up and yelling at someone who obviously doesn't have the capacity to own up to anything. One man recently shared his technique in dealing with Karen customers without having to stoop to their level and it is absolutely genius.

This man used to be a manager a show store and truly discovered the best way to deal with Karen customers. His musical technique has two approaches. You can one, literally just sing all your responses to the Karen. For example, if they're whining about something that isn't your fault, but to them, it most definitely is, you can whip out a harmonica and sing back your explanation to how it is not your fault. You will feel calmer as the musician, and the Karen will feel even more frustrated and fluttered and most likely will just leave.

The second musical technique he shares is for those who aren't big fans of singing or making music, but still are fans. If you get a raging Karen storming into your store and trying to manipulate you to bend to their choatic evil power, simply respond to them very calmly with whatever lyrics of your choosing.

So, say a Karen walks in and they're all huffy-puffy about something dumb, you can say lyrics as if they're just part of your everyday conversation. “Oh, you don't like our return policy, well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming, feds to the rules and I hit the ground running. It didn't make sense not to live for fun, your brain gets smart, but your head gets dumb.”
