‘You play, I play': Quirky Karen throws tantrum at hotel front desk, employee remembers her a month later and makes sure she gets the worst room in the building

When you go to check in a hotel, do you treat the front desk clerk like a robot who needs to be unplugged and sent to the dump if there is one misunderstanding or are you a human being who understands that miscommunications are inevitable and can give everyone a little bit of grace due to that fact? If you are that first one, then I hate to break it to you, but you are a top notch Karen. Just because somebody works in customer service, does not mean they are immune to miscommunications. It's very obvious by the way you talk to staff that you have never worked in hospitality or any sort of service industry job. Because most miscommunications are the customer's fault, and yet the staff always gets blamed. So have some dang empathy…

 

Unfortunately, for this employee, she got a "quirky" Karen who thought her unique aesthetic saved her from the typical "Karen" title, but her tantrum begged to differ…
