public freakout

If you ever find yourself on a date with someone who has worked as a manager at an Olive Garden you're probably, naturally going to proceed to drill them with all kinds of questions about their craziest days on the job. There's just something about those dang limitless breadsticks that can end up bringing out people's demons like none other. All in all, this story has a little bit of something for everyone. It's got the drama, the romance, and the action. 

This guy detailed his first week of work at Target, and it reads like an exhausting customer service nightmare. Working any kind of customer service job is willingly putting yourself on the front line of dealing with all kinds of toxic entitlement, and customers just making everyone else's life a little bit more complicated. Sounds like working at Target is no small feat. 

There's entitlement, and then there's blind ignorance that ultimately manifests in a nightmare of a human being that refuses to hear the obvious truth their being told. This particular case of an entitled Karen is just plain old discouraging. All the credit goes to the woman being "accused" of working at the store, for delivering a spicy silencer of a comeback. Check out another case of an insufferable Karen with this Karen who lied about a back injury, and ended up getting outed.

These kinds of customers are the absolute worst. It's as if they're dedicated to making hard working and honest employee's lives miserable. In this case we have what sounds like a ferocious Karen leave a scathing review/complaint that ultimately inspires the server to quit. Honestly, it's worth it at that point. Can't put a price on peace of mind, and there's always another opportunity out there. 

Some people really get a kick out of airing out their dirty laundry in public. For whatever reason, someone in the relationship decides that they're going to express their unhappiness with their partner in a public realm, like a nice and otherwise calm restaurant. If anything, those calm and sleek and bougie restaurants seem to be magnets for such dramatic behavior. It's absurd. These dates ended up being true disasters. 

Sometimes folks hit their capacity for how much absurdity they'll put up with while on the job, and decide to quit thereafter. These people found their limits, and their exits were certainly carried out in memorable fashion. 

Someone on AskReddit asked for people that have endured working retail, to share their biggest customer service nightmares. You know, those moments when you're at your breaking point and the Karen in your vicinity is testing the very outer limits of your sanity. 

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to share their trashiest Thanksgiving memories. The common theme amongst these especially trashy moments is one of overconsumption. The overconsumption of the sauce! 

Someone on AskReddit asked for retail workers to share their worst Black Friday horror stories. Our general takeaway from all these stories of Black Friday madness, is that we all might be served best by staying far away from stores and their testy, rage-friendly customers on the infamous discount day. 

This woman asked the people of Reddit whether or not she was in the wrong for yelling at a stranger, who called her out for taking a handicapped parking spot. Sounds like the stranger was all up in her business, because apparently a "young and skinny" individual like herself could just tough it out. Honestly, the stranger sounds like a real piece of work who was on one themselves. Seems like them getting called out was definitely well deserved.
