'And no tip, of course': Customer refuses to read entire menu description and demands item restaurant does not offer, incompetent manager leaves novice server in charge

When it comes to sticky situation, you're going to want an expert in charge, right? Unfortunately, sometimes, like in the instance of this Redditor's story, the "expert" in charge is actually the worst. This Redditor was new to working the service industry. (They have since worked it for many years, but this was from the start.) The were working at a big chain steak house when they got a male Karen. This guy ordered something off the menu that did not exist. When OP pointed that out to him, he simply did no care and demanded what he ordered. Since it literally did no exist in that establishment, the tantrum started. Luckily, the male Karen didn't end up getting what he wanted, but his penance was definitely not enough. Plus, he didn't even leave a tip. A classic way for a new server to find out that people can be the worst.
