65-year-old coworker salty of younger new hire, tries to get her in trouble but ends up putting her own job on the line: ‘Not believing my luck I said, "Actually… YOU booked [it] wrong!"’

Why can't we all get along? There is this weird since of competitiveness that some older employees will feel against any new hires, especially ones younger than them. Why is this? Don't you want to have a stronger team? In the case of this travel agency, their older employee was not happy with their newest, younger, hire and she made her distaste clear. The new hire wasn't even there to replace here, she was just added to be part of the team. And yet, this Karen employee could not see that. So she made it her mission to make her new job a sour one. 

 

Finally, Karma came to work one day. A mistake was made with a VIP client. The new hire was the one who encountered it and she fixed it ASAP and easily. However, the Karen employee decided to take this as her chance to try to ruin this new employee and potentially even get her fired. So she brought out the boss and started yelling at her in front of everyone. When she was done with her tantrum, standing there with her smug face, the newer employee had the pleasure of letting her and everyone else know that the mistake was actually made by the her, the Karen employee. But don't worry, the new hire fixed it for you!
