A karen in the wild
(I’m finishing up helping a customer pick out a steak. A customer comes to the counter and starts freaking out. The phone starts ringing. I walk to the service case.)
Me: How can I help you?
Customer: I’VE BEEN WAITING FOREVER!!! I RANG YOUR BELL!!!! I’VE GOT A DOG THAT NEEDS WALKED!!!
(She hangs up her cell phone, the phone in the market stops)
Customer: I NEED A POUND OF SALMON BUT I DON’T WANT ALL THIS STUFF WITH THE CEDAR PLANKS!!!! CAN YOU CUT THIS WHOLE SIDE?!?!
Me: Sure. Just so you know, the price goes up if you don’t buy the whole thing.
Customer: I DON’T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT THAT!
Me: Okay. I just wanted to let you know.
(I cut her salmon and skin it for her. She snatches it out of my hand and storms off.)
(A minute later)
Customer: What did you do with the other pieces?
Me: I’m getting ready to tray them up.
Customer: I want those instead of this one.
Me: Sure. These are 2lbs not 1lb.
Customer: I’M SORRY I WASN’T CLEAR!!!!
(She snatches the other ones and storms off.)
