Office Karen picks a fight with coworker for making too many elaborate lunches: 'She doesn't have a right to demand that'

This Karen had the audacity to tell her coworker to stop making great lunches…

Of course, the root of this was envy, which is the root of so many office conflicts we have covered here at FAIL Blog. In this instance, however, the Karen coworker was the spouse of another employee at the company, who is on the same team as the coworker who cooks well and often makes extra food for her teammates. It's not that the Karen wanted some of the extra food herself. It's that she felt threatened by her coworker's cooking skills… as if her husband were going to leave her over these office lunches.

Now, it's quite possible that the husband made comments to his wife that were uncalled for and unfair, but of course, instead of calling her husband out on his nonsense, the Karen decided to blame her coworker's cooking skills as the real source of her marital problems. Let this story serve as another reason not to work with your spouse, and if you do, to leave your personal troubles at home.
