'All that for a cup of soup': Karen's card gets declined so she gets her husband to yell at and rough up the young cashier, manager comes to the rescue

Sometimes people do things in real life that are just so mind-blowingly bonkers that it makes you question all of humanity. How did you get to here? What did the world do to this person to turn them into this monster? This… Karen. Ahhh yes, the notorious Karen in the wild. A Karen alone is already enough to make you want to punch a wall, but add a Karen husband partnered with them and you want to run through a wall.

That's what happened to one person who used to work at Panera—she posted the story on Reddit's r/f***youkaren. She was freshly 20 and it was her first job ever. She was the cashier at a Panera when a Karen came in during a slow hour. The Karen was the only customer in the establishment and the employee kept asking if she needed help, but the Karen ignored everyone. She walked up to the touch screen and place her order there. Fine, that's fair, sometimes people don't feel like talking to anybody. However, a few minutes later she comes marching to the counter huffing and puffing wonder where her cup of soup was. The girl checked all the orders and it turns out her's never came through because her card was declined.

The woman made such a fuss that the employee was going to just give her the soup, but she was a jerk instead and ran away. A minute later her huge 5'11" husband comes in and starts screaming at this 20 year old for messing up his wife's soup order—a male Karen, if you will. He gets so entitled that he marches in the back to yell at the cooks and when the cashier tried to stop him, he turned and grabbed her by the shoulders and started shaking her.

Luckily, the manager came to the rescue and wrestled the entitled Karen husband off of the employee. The manager then escorted him out and came back to check on the employee and gave them the rest of the day off.

We know, right? How can people possibly think it's okay to act this way? We have no idea. Read the entire story and people's reactions below!
