Talk about main character syndrome! This guy literally thought he was wronged by the manager of a restaurant and wound up posting to Reddit to flaunt their outrage. However, even narcissists aren't always fully able to disguise the truth, and it became very clear in the retelling of this story who was actually in the wrong.

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit, and let's just say that people in the comments were quick to call the Redditor out on their Karen behavior. There were several moments in this journey when the original poster could have chosen to simply order from another restaurant rather than cause more trouble. But no! They decided to pick a fight, and let's be honest: this was never about the discount code. This was about a person's inability to be wrong. Keep scrolling below for the full story.

The restaurant said the miminum order should be $7 and I made my order $7. Then I decided to use a discount code, which put my order below $7. I pressed "Credit Card Scan (Driver will bring a credit card swipe machine)" as my payment as I only had $4 in my wallet. Most of my money is online. I was notified m

    Font - 20 minutes later, I got a call from the delivery manager (DM) saying my order is below minimum. I told the manager that I applied the discount code and the order without the discount is over $7 but the D said it has to be $7, even with discount. I decided to just take out the discount just deal with it. Then the DM asked "Change for How much". I sternly told the DM i chose credit card scan as I had $4 in my wallet. He said "but we have none at the moment" and I told him I should have been

    Font - When the driver came, he had no Credit Card Swipe Machine. I was so pissed and mad. The DM lied to me. I decided to do something. My country has an e-wallet app where you can send money just by knowing the person's number, as long as they are members of the app. Since the DM called me, I have his number. using the DM's number, I checked the e-wallet app if he is a member. He is and I decided to send the payment online to his e-wallet. I did, told the driver about it and got my order. I fi

    Font - 30 minutes later the DM called and he was angry. He told me my payment is not a valid one and I should have given the driver cash. I told the DM "You lied to me and you should deal with the consequences." he threatend to report me for "Stealing" the food but I just paid him in the most inconvenient way possible. I jsut told him "Go ahead because I have proof that you lied to me and made so many difficulties in my order".

    Font - 8aL0Tb8bzBIGnow +2. 14 hr. ago Minimum order of $7 means minimum payment of $7. Discount codes can be used but amount still needs to be at least $7. What is there to not understand? You sound like the kind of person who always feels you're right and should have your way even when wrong. Customers who are like this makes work miserable! 260 Reply Share

Also, my comment isn't to say "ease up on OP" or whatever. It's more to point out that it makes sense that this is someone who's young and just doesn't know what's standard. 131 Reply Share

    Font - in_u_endo_______. 14 hr. ago The restaurant said the minimum order is $7 so you made an order for that much then used a discount which automatically didn't make the order $7 anymore. You're a real d e of a customer.
