After working in customer service, you quickly come to the side fo abolishing the "customer is always right" mentality. Why? Because the customer most definitely is not always right. In fact, it becomes pretty obvious that the customer is usually very wrong. Unfortunately, many customers going into a customer service based establishment still think they can't possibly be wrong and that they need to be waited on hand and foot. God forbid you get one tiny thing wrong—if these customers had their way, it would be off with your head!
Luckily, that mentality is slowly being ushered out of the workplace with more mindful managers and supportive coworkers. So when an entitled customer comes in and throws a Karen-level tantrum over something as dumb as extra salad dressing, then you know you gotta buckle up for a ride. This is exactly what happened to the OP of this Reddit thread. The OP was working a busy Sunday at a nice pizza place, the kind that as appetizers and drinks. The OP was triple sat, but it was nothing they couldn't handle. However, the kitchen was really on their A-game that day, unexpectedly, so the salad and the pizza came out at the same time. Not a big deal, right? Not to a Karen.
This Karen freaked out because she couldn't eat her salad before the pizza got to their table because she was still waiting on the extra ranch she had asked for. She blew up at the server, who immediately passed the situation on to the manager, because, let's be honest, servers don't get paid enough to have to deal with that crap. The manager was somehow able to handle the situation and get them out of there, but she confessed to the server that the Karen almost had her in tears over stupid ranch dressing. Luckily, the embarrassed husband felt bad and left a 35% tip. At least this was a Karen/not-Karen couple and not a double-Karen couple. But dang, we all feel bad for that husband if that's what he has to deal with… See the entire story and other Redditor's reactions below.
