Karen Confuses Customer For An Employee, Goes Behind Her, Store Gets Closed And Locks Her Out

Hello! Welcome to today’s hilarious Reddit story, handpicked for your entertainment. In a thread shared by user Tactical-Pixie-1864 on Reddit’s r/IDontWorkHereLady subreddit community, our OP shared their crazy run-in with a wild Karen recently when they were attempting to purchase some dinner after their long shift. The incident took place after the OP, who worked as an EMT, had a grueling day at work and was completely exhausted. A Karen soon approached her believing she was a grocery store employee and refused to accept that OP was just a customer, leading to a blown-out fiasco in the parking lot.

#1) Let’s get into it!

#2) OP had a really long shift one night and headed to the store after changing into something more comfortable to pick up dinner.

#3) The store was about to close in a few minutes and OP quickly grabbed her items. Suddenly she hears someone say “Ahem.”

#4) A woman tells OP to get her some pretzels even after repeatedly being told that OP doesn’t work here.

#5) The woman freaks out and starts muttering under her breath. When OP is leaving, the woman brings over the manager and calls OP a “lazy b**ch”.

#6) OP ignores her and goes to walk out. OP can hear the manager calling the Karen as she leaves her cart, storms out and stands in front of OP’s car.

#7) The Karen continues to verbally harass OP while the manager continues to try to get her attention.

#8) The Karen and the store’s manager have a screaming interaction and then he locks the doors and closes the store.

#9) The Karen gets annoyed that OP isn’t giving her her full attention before OP points out that the store is now closed.

#10) The Karen screamed and ran towards the door as OP drove off.

Accidentally thinking another customer is an employee can be an embarrassing and basically a humbling experience… however, for some people, the realization of their mistake is far from humbling. Instead, their arrogance often prevents them from accepting they were wrong, leading to tantrums and further embarrassment. Many people commenting on the post didn’t believe that this was a true story due to the sheer absurdity of the Karen’s actions. The other half who did believe OP, enjoyed her getting locked out immensely. Here’s what Redditors are saying about the post:

#11) If she had left all her important things in her cart, that would’ve been incredible.

#20) Some people shouldn’t be allowed to be in public and should be caged up, honestly. It doesn’t cost anything to keep your mouth shut.
