Listen, we get it, you're a doctor. That's a huge portion of your life dedicated to education and helping humanity. But like, also, don't be a jerk. Do they not teach that part in all that school? That maybe you should be humble? If you really think about it, you're making money off the lives of people's suffering, so like, take a seat, doc. We appreciate you, but again, don't be a jerk.

Unfortunately, many doctors tend to get inflated egos and become extremely entitled. (Not all doctors, of course! Some are the absolute best.) These doctors we like to call Dr. Karen. A Dr. Karen recently tried to pull the entitled status card on a pharmacist recently and they shut hum down very fast. The story posted on Reddit for r/pettyrevenge says that this doctor came in for his prescription and started to throw a Karen-level tantrum when the cost wasn't what he expected. The pharmacist explained the extra charge and even went as far as showing him all the paperwork that came with it. The doctor still did not believe the pharmacist. So they said he is welcomed to all his insurance, but they will just tell him the same thing. That is when he tried to pull the, "that's DOCTOR bla bla bla to you!" And with this the pharmacist epically responded with, "not my doctor." And everything went silent as the burn settled in and the Dr. Karen just paid for their prescription and shuffled off, defeated. Hope that DOCTOR knows how to treat burns like that one.
