Working as a barista, you get to meet a bucketload of the general population, most of whom are wildly entitled, despite the fact that underneath their short blond haircut and agitated pointing finger, they're just like you: a human being. Unfortunately, customers were either brought up without manners and never managed to get a knack for them, or they were brought up with manners, and chucked them out the second they turned 18. In any case, OP was working as a barista at a cafe, when a Karen regular entered the store and placed her order. After receiving the drinks, Karen approached OP and said she needed them to label her drinks. Of course, she said all this in a rude, loud tone, that doesn't deserve a response, but OP responded nonetheless.

OP told Karen that the drinks were, in fact, labeled. If only Karen would care to take an actual look… Karen did not take kindly to OP's obvious disdain for her, and went off, as Karens do. This ordeal led to OP quitting… below you can read what happened next. For more, here is a car dealership that refused to take a car they had sold back due to malfunctions… the customer put them in their place.
