‘She begged for my husband’: Karen attempts to get computer for free by demanding to speak to owner's husband

Selling things online is a fickle business. It starts off fairly simple, you post an ad along with your contact info. You get a couple of replies, maybe get ghosted once or twice, perhaps a prank phone call or two. But the world of online business is a strange one, and it is bound to bring some pretty strange people to your doorstep if you are not careful. Here, in this case, OP posted an ad for a computer, stating the price of 900. Not one minute later, OP got a phone call. At first, everything seemed relatively normal, but the phone call quickly escalated into something kind of, for lack of a better word, creepy.

The woman on the other end explained to OP that she was looking to buy a laptop for her granddaughter, then continued with a couple of questions, one of which startled OP, and for good reason. What went down? Scroll down to find out. You be the judge of this weird situation… All I can say is that it put me off selling anything online for a while. Then, you can check out this veteran employee who got back at his boss, who threatened to fire him after he left his shift 3 minutes early. The boss ended up getting fired himself. Yeah, some people really make their own beds.
