Woe to those who deal with sneering customers, conniving hotel guests, and Karens. In other words, I salute anyone who works in the customer service industry, because you have to be tough as nails to tackle these kinds of entitled folk. As shared by u/anna12o, one hotel guest, who was, of course, a Karen, was making her life especially difficult, when it genuinely didn't have to be. You know those types of people who pay for something and then just assume that buys them a one-way ticket to be w…

When working at a hotel, you get to meet a variety of different people, and some of them are the type to attempt getting a discount or even an entire refund for the smallest of things that could easily be fixed if only they would use their mouth to communicate effectively instead of to argue. In this case, Karen thought she was going to win gold by conveniently complaining about her bathroom fan not working after she'd already checked out of the hotel.

This particular lady's arrogance outweighed anything that OP had ever encountered. Throughout Karen'…

Working in the hospitality industry is painfully awkward at times, and oftentimes leaves you with a bitter aftertaste, pining for a vacation that would preferably last over a year. Karens are commonplace, and make your job much harder than it needs to be. In this case, a Karen approached OP when they were working Night Audit at a busy hotel, demanding to be checked in immediately, rolling her eyes at OP in the process. OP knew right away that something was off, and asked for Karen's full name a…
