Working in a customer service industry is tremendously challenging; most of us live a relatively similar lifestyle, and though it’s common knowledge to be kind to each other, some folks seem like they’ve been brought up on a different planet.

Encountering rude customers is a very unpleasant yet inevitable occurrence, and if someone you’re trying to serve is being difficult, it’s easy to get disoriented and lose your composure.

Of course, if the customer’s dissatisfied with the service, they’re 100% entitled to express their concerns – however, if it’s done in an incredibly rude manner, sometimes all you can do is call them out.

“This Karen got owned by my boss” – an online user turned to one of Reddit’s communities dedicated to entitled folk to share a screenshot revealing how their boss dealt with a customer that left a 1-star review claiming that the business refused to correct her order which they’d allegedly messed up. The post has managed to receive nearly 4K upvotes and a couple of comments discussing the audacity of some people.

The woman began her 1-star review by sharing that despite the business’ pleasant environment, the staff was pretty “terrible”; the employees were accused of messing up the order and then refusing to correct it. She mentioned that when she was explaining the situation, everyone stared at her cluelessly and later encouraged the window workers to write down the orders correctly. The dissatisfied customer then gave the place a 0/10 rating concerning the customer service and vouched to never support it.

The business owner replied saying that the customer’s order was, in fact, correct as it was made based upon what the man she was with ordered; they stated that everything was put out of the window according to the ticket. Moreover, the window attendant cooperated fully, they addressed the issue and shared that in order for her to alter the order, she’d need to go back to the first window and speak with the owner as window workers do not have access to the cash register.

The owner then suggested that if there’s ever another time where the woman isn’t so pumped about what her partner orders for her, she should come and place the order herself. They also mentioned that she might’ve noticed how demanding things angrily didn’t benefit her whatsoever and finally finished the comment with the good old “please don’t come back”.

Some Redditors didn’t agree with such an attitude and argued that sending customers back to the first window is a “terrible approach”

Most of the comments were impressed by the owner’s response – however, some completely disagreed with such an approach; an online user that goes by the name “reddit_god” wrote a very detailed, heavily downvoted and, at times, absurd remark arguing that sending the customer back to the first window is “neither helpful nor efficient”. It seems that the Redditor didn’t read the post thoroughly and missed the part where the business owner stated that the window employees don’t have the access to the cash register, making it impossible for them to alter the purchase. Moreover, the restaurant is not a drive-through type of facility and if you search up the place, you can see that the windows are located right next to each other.

Others supported the owner and the way they’ve handled the situation
