'[She was] talking to me like I'm the idiot': Karen goes berserk when the hotel receptionist explains how room service works, realizes her misunderstanding and stalks off defeated

Everyone's stayed at a hotel or motel at least once in their life. The magical wonders of continental breakfasts, freshly made beds, and clean white towels get cemented in your memory, making your hotel experience (even the non-luxurious kind), memorable simply because it may be the one time in your life that you're pampered with room service. Obviously, every hotel is a wee bit different, so when you check in for your stay, usually the receptionist will lay out exactly how your pampering will go down. Your hotel experience is designed to go quite smoothly, that is, unless you're a poor listener and a tyrannical Karen. 

In our next story, a monstrous Karen lost her marbles during her check-in briefing, huffing and puffing because she didn't fully understand the simplicity of her receptionists instructions. Scroll for the entire debacle where this hotel receptionist stood his ground, even after being yelled at by an idiotic Karen who just wanted to yell at someone. Fortunately in this story, the Karen gets completely and utterly vanquished, leaving defeated and hopefully a little ashamed at her obliviousness.
