It's time to pay our respects to those who are living the server life.

Don't underestimate the pettiness of these fed-up workers . You'd be acting petty too if customers treated you the same way . Cashiers work so hard for so little recognition. If I was running things, all cashiers would be allowed to sit down, they'd be allowed to talk back to rude customers, and they'd all be paid at least $1 million per year. In reality, though, cashiers have to deal with the grouchiest customers one after another for minimum wage (and no sitting down either). You can only han…

It always feels like the people who are the most annoying about following the rules are actually the worst rule followers.

Sharin' is carin', Karen!

The brilliance of the manager putting the sport coat on before returning to the conversation as “the owner” is something that I wish I had been able to witness with my own eyes.

This boss thought she knew how to run weekend shifts , but she was mistaken. In most lines of work, weekends are the busiest days of the week. School is out and many office workers have weekends off , leading customers to stream into business places. At this OP's place of work, they had a boss who clearly didn't think through her plans. As u/Oncewasaworker writes, their boss Karen was hired through some vague relationship to someone in the company. Despite her role as a manager, she seemed to l…

A Karen calls an arts and crafts store and demands a pizza… No, this isn't a punchline for a joke—but everyone who has worked in restaurants or retail wishes that it was. These workers have seen their fair share of wild demands and demanding wild persons—and it only takes one screaming customer meltdown in the lobby of your establishment to make you reconsider your entire line of work. But at least in person, most people have the good graces to behave politely, but phone conversations and email…

Who knew that asking for access to your own driveway would cause such drama?

This beach is full of old money folks who are used to getting their way. As u/fumples explained in their story to r/MaliciousCompliance, they had to deal with some rather irritating women who made it their goal to police everybody at the beach . Going to the shore for a summer vacation is the highlight of the summer for those who live along the coast. It's common for families to plan a few days of relaxation at the beach, where the kids can build sandcastles and play in the waves, while the adu…

Looking back on their new purchase in the 1990s, this person realized the car dealership got away with something intriguing. This is a story of a person buying a car in the 1990s, and one of the first things they claim is that these days, the “era of haggling” is over. Though I've never bought a car, I find that hard to believe. When purchasing a car, it's well known that people like to haggle with the salespeople to try and get a great deal for themselves. Meanwhile, the salespeople often have…

May hit close to home.

It's easy to get lost in a fantasy about putting an entitled person in their place—though the perfect response usually doesn't come to you in the moment, but rather when you're in the shower sometime later. There, in a dream daze fueled by hot-running water, your wits are sharpened to a knife's edge, and the resulting clarity brings forth the cutting remark you wish you'd thought of earlier. Seldom do you get the chance to live this fantasy out and take your adversary to task—but this guy claim…

First, there was an actual storm, but then there was the storm raged by a sea of Karens.

Desperate times may call for desperate measures, but some of these choosing beggars are really reaching...

Serving one Karen at a restaurant is difficult enough. Imagine having to serve 13 of them!

Some people just wake up entitled, convinced they're better than everyone else. And these people love to bug retail workers until they lose their minds, as u/amaranthinenightmare shared in their story to r/MaliciousCompliance. The woman in this story is every retail worker's nightmare . She's the kind of person who shows up at 7:45am to bang on the windows of the store until it opens at 8am. She's the type who will unfold all the clothes the employees just folded, only to then demand you find h…
