restaurant

During more "normal times" we relish seeing restaurant owners call out unreasonable customers for bullshit reviews. Now, while restaurant workers and bartenders are risking their lives to cater to entitled people, we find that we relish the takedowns even more. Today we come to you with a classic Karen tale from Hucknall in the UK. This Karen, whose real name is Jo, took to Facebook to express her dismay at being kicked out of a restaurant after spending  £700 on a birthday celebration at the venue. 

The restaurant quickly responds - correcting her lies (the party spent about a quarter of that) and calling her group out for their drunken and entitled behavior. It's an expert takedown that requires only facts to make the Karen (and her entire family) seem out of line. And we think you'll find it pretty entertaining.

If you've ever worked in a customer service position, then you've guaranteed encountered your fair share of Karens and other horrible, entitled customers who make your job a lot harder than it needs to be. We're not going to stereotype generations here, but as proven by the memes you're about to see it's the Baby Boomers who are always the worst. Sorry, not sorry.

Working in service has a tendency to be hellish, even without the whole deadly pandemic thing looming over our shoulders and filling up hospitals. Now? Only the most entitled Karens (who probably don't want to wear masks) are filling up restaurants in covid-ravaged states, making lives hell and tipping less than 10%. These memes go out to all the people who have had to deal with such people, and in some cases, continue to do so throughout the madness. You deserve a lot of respect.

It's true that you can sometimes make bank while being a server. Unfortunately, it's also true that you'll be abused by customers, deal with MIA managers, and spend hours of your precious time doing inane side work like polishing silverware. These server memes are for anyone in the struggle. We hear you, and we see you.

Congratulations are in order. You've made it through the torture of Monday - and you're still trucking along through the absolute horror-show that is 2020. As a reward (and to lift your spirits) we've put together this mixed bag of amusing memes. Just sit back, flex those scrolling muscles, and enjoy the humor. 

Whether you're a server, bartender, or line cook, we're betting that you'll find these memes very relatable. Restaurant work is tough, and anyone who claims it's easy has obviously never had to work a busy shift with 500 Karen-type patrons. 

And you're in luck, cause we have even more service industry content here!

While we appreciate how wonderfully world-opening the internet is, there are some serious drawbacks to everyone feeling they have a soapbox. There's no greater example of this than restaurant reviews from rude and entitled people. Yelp gives obnoxious people another outlet for, well, being obnoxious. Fortunately, some business owners refuse to let the aggression stand, and opt to bite right back.

Anyone who works in or who has worked in the customer service industry will know the horrors of...The Karen. Doesn't matter if you're a waiter, bartender, call center rep, or you work at an Urban Outfitters - Karens are everywhere and they don't discriminate when it comes to speaking to the manager.

Cooking isn't for everyone, and that's okay. But for those who like to nerd out over what you're going to make for dinner every night - these memes are for you! So whether you cook for a living or just enjoy it in your free time, we think you'll find some amusement here. Bon appetit!

Most of us have had to or will have to work in the customer service industry at some point in our lives. Whether that be bartending, serving, or working at a grocery store, all of these jobs have one thing in common: virtually no opportunity for paid sick days, which can lead to employees infecting others and even ridicule from management if one dares to take a day off.

Writer Lauren Hough took to Twitter to highlight these problems, and we have to say that it's very informative and 100% worth the read.

And once again, here's a link to some hilarious (yet ultimately depressing) memes about our "wonderful" healthcare system!

It doesn't really look like the Karen memes are going to slow down any time soon, but that's totally okay with us. The "Karens" of the world need to learn their place, and we just hope that the memes will get through to them.
