'Hire me. And then I'll leave': Karen demands a job and causes a scene after being told no, refuses to leave and is escorted out by security

There is such a thing as taking advice too literally…. and we've all probably heard the advice from parents (and other older relatives) that the best way into the workforce is to march into somewhere you want to work—best professional attire, CV in hand, and demand a job. The employer will be so taken aback, in awe, and blinded by the magnificence of your professional prowess that they'll offer you a $100k/yr job on the spot… as a receptionist. 

In reality, that's not how it works anymore (if it ever even did). We now live in a world where you need to apply for 300 jobs online before you even get one first-round interview. This can be a maddening experience and drive even the best of us insane.

This Karen took this advice too literally and created an explosive engagement that saw her escorted out by security. The story was shared on Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit by Redditor u/therealjoemcjoeson. See the screenshots below, and visit the attribution links to see the original thread; for more, check out this Karen, who parked in a family's driveway and tried to pretend it was her house when she was called out.
