Any sort of job that involves customer service is going to attract Karens. It's just inevitable. Why? Who knows? Maybe it's because entitled people think that "customer service" means that the employee needs to wait on them hand and foot and if they do anything wrong they can smite them? We don't know for sure… But we all know that these types of entitled customers have earned the named Karen. Going to pick up your prescription can be a quick and painless process, or, if there was a mixup with your insurance or everyone in town is also picking up their script at that time, it's going to be long and probably a little frustrating. What Karens don't understand is, that is not the fault of the pharmacist.
One man, who happened to be 6'5" and 250Ibs, encountered one of these Karens while at the pharmacy. This guy posted on Reddit that he used to be a delivery guy for medication delivery service. He admits he doesn't have the temperament to deal with customer service, which is why he enjoyed just picking up the packages and dropping them off and not dealing with anyone. He went to one pharmacy in particular quite often to pick up scripts and he ended up befriending many of the pharmacists there because he would just be sitting there waiting and they'd chat. One day he gets there to pick up a prescription for a customer and he walks in mid-Karen tantrum.
This Karen was literally yelling at the pharmacist who he said could be more than 20 and was starting to back away because the Karen was being so threatening. He felt like it was his time to shine and he approached the Karen and boy did he lay down the most epic lie of the century. The Karen of course got the manager and tried to get him fired, but the thing was, he didn't work for the pharmacy. The Karen stormed out and the pharmacist brought him a plate of homemade brownies the next day. He never got in trouble by his own work and he was friends with those pharmacist his entire career.
