It is no secret that working in the retail/service industry requires a lot of patience, restraint, and perseverance.

Grocery store aisles and fast food drive-thrus are infested with a plethora of rude and entitled customers that employees are forced to engage with.

TikTok user @retailiators works in retail, and she has a crazy story about a beyond rude Kare.

So the video begins with her taking down a sign and changing the total number of Karens who have entered the store. Altogether, they have encountered 136 Karens at this point.

“It has been 0 days since our last Karen,” the sign reads.

It all started when the employee was halfway through her shift. Suddenly, three ladies walked in, so of course, she greeted them, saying, “Hi! Welcome in.”

Immediately, one of the ladies repeats the phrase in a mocking tone. The employee ignored the dig and watched them continue on their shopping expedition.

Eventually, the group of ladies walked up to check out their items, and the employee was there to help, along with another girl.

The Karen was at the front paying for her things when she said insultingly, “What? Do you have to be of the same ethnicity to work here?”

Both of the girls behind the register had black hair, but that was where their similarities ended.

“I looked her dead in the eyes, and I started speaking Spanish to her, and she was confused and left,” said the employee.

Many TikTok users had some suggestions for what to do the next time a Karen shows her face at their store.

“You should get a Karen bell; ring it as soon as they start,” advised one user.

“Change the sign while maintaining eye contact with them, I beg you,” pleaded another.

“I’ve had someone do the hi welcome in mock to me, and so I mocked how they were acting with my boss. We couldn’t stop laughing once they stormed out,” offered a third.

How many Karens have you dealt with so far?
