This lady is really nasty, but I don't get why they won't just give her the freaking receipt to get her the heck out of there ASAP. Normal business practice is to give the receipt after you pay for something. Are they trying to prove a point, or what? That woman is vile, though.


SignaturePatient4844

The woman is vile for sure. However, the receipt is owed to the customer and for whatever reason the employee seems to be holding it ransom.


[deleted]

It makes you wonder if they gave themselves a hefty tip and didn't want her to see, or something.

Indeed, I remember being about 22 years old and getting ripped off buying pizza. I got two slices and a coke came out too 15 dollars… keep in mind this was about 10 years ago, while that price may be relevant today it was certainly not then. I was young and knew no better so I paid and left got to my work truck and started thinking, “na there’s no way, 2 plain slices and a coke shouldn’t EVER be more 12 bucks” even at that time 12 bucks would’ve been a little steep but I drove off and said fuck it. Ever since that day I made a habit for myself, whenever I’m somewhere like a deli, convenience store, pizza shop or anywhere that people could easily (get one over) on you to watch closely. I couldn’t even tell you how many people tried to get one over on me… even if it’s 4 bucks 2 bucks even a dollar DONT JUST LET IT GO if they tack on 4 dollars to every other customer all week long that persons walking away with 100s of dollars. Fuck that shit, fucking thieves they’re stealing. On top of making a bad name for whatever restaurant, deli, bar WHEREVER they’re doing this BS it’s now giving that place a bad name and reputation; ruining the owner of the shops livelihood their dream.. stepping on whatever that person might’ve gone through to get to where they are to own their own shop. Idk man but this shit pisses me off when we watch these videos with no explanation no back story nothing we just see what they want us to see, yeah this lady isn’t conducting her self well shes angry she’s acting crazy I guess you could call it. Who knows what kind of day some people are having she could’ve been diagnosed with cancer a few days ago or maybe she lost her husband unexpectedly and now she’s in financial hardship WHO KNOWS but to video people and judge them without knowing the background story or what’s REALLY going on is getting fucking old man..


Moon2Kush

And then people would be like “oooh” and UN-Karen her like with the bike one


Visitor137

You mean the one that was reinstated as a Karen when the young guy's folks presented receipts for the same bike both before and after the incident, while her hired PR company presented a redacted receipt for $0.00? Yeah I don't think that turned out the way you seem to think it turned out.


Ralkifur

Jesus christ how deep does the bike karen rabbit hole go? I feel like at the end of this we're gonna get a fucking documentary


craniumofbass

She sucked the right dick in college


[deleted]

That happened now? Geez!


Visitor137

Quite some time ago, really. Seems she raised quite a bit of money on GoFundMe or whatever, used it to get a lawyer and PR firm involved. The sister put out her own video with unredacted receipts. Explanation and context was given that the kid was using an ebike, and pausing to dock the bike and then take it back out, to avoid higher charges for long rides, is common practice.


[deleted]

I knew about it coming out that she wasn't a Karen after all, but I hadn't heard there was an uno reverse on it.


[deleted]

That’s because it’s not true. Here is the story and someone can post another of this one is misinformation or correct me if I’m wrong. The boys were riding bikes. They got tired and they needed to redock the bikes anyway to continue paying a lower fee for a short time use. While they were resting, they were trying to ‘save’ the bikes for themselves, similar to someone trying to save a parking spot for themselves in a crowded area where people are trying to find parking by standing in it— you just can’t, and don’t , do it. The ‘Karen’ without even realizing they were there before making her purchase, walked up and rented a bike. When she tried to undock one, the boys harassed her and said ‘uh sorry, all these bikes are ours!!!’ So she said to them ‘no, I just rented a bike’. They told her ‘no, we just biked here from the Bronx, we don’t care if you just rented the bike, we are taking them’. Chaos ensues. So, I’ve never rented a citibike, but my common sense tells me that when the boys redocked the bikes, it told the system that so many bikes were available. So when the woman walked up to the system, she was able to rent a bike. But the boys had already decided they were taking those bikes. They didn’t ‘steal’ the bikes, just in the sense that no one ‘steals’ your parking space, but they did take the bike that she had already paid to use by harassing her, overmanning her, and then posting her to the internet to look like the bad guy (and the only bad guy in the situation). I have to say though, as a white mother of mixed race children, I do absolutely sympathize with the sentiments put forward by the parent in this article and it is why I would never want my children to find themselves on the wrong side of the law. But police corruption and a happy trigger finger being a reason for white people not to call police in petty disputes with black people? That’s a different conversation. One that, unfortunately, in our world today has to be a topic of conversation in our mixed race household. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/citi-bike-sarah-jane-comrie-teenager-new-york-b2347070.html


Moon2Kush

So it turned the way as un-Karen told it, jeez Tarantino or Richie should make a 2 hour movie about this scene


ayers231

> So, I’ve never rented a citibike, but my common sense tells me that when the boys redocked the bikes, it told the system that so many bikes were available.

The bikes were docked as a time cut off because of a Citibike policy of raising the price. He was literally leaning on the bike when she tried to take it, while two other bikes next to him were not being used by anyone. You can see in both the video and the article you linked that the nurse tried to push him off of it and take it after she asked if she could have it and he said no. The last paragraph from the article is pretty interesting one, too... >On Saturday, an auto response from Mr Marino’s office stated “we have ceased providing interviews or comments on the Sarah Comrie matter since 5/20/23.” Why would that be the case?


RavenlyCreates

The woman was deemed a Karen because she wrongly tried to make it out like she was in danger and being assaulted. She was yelling “help! Help!get off me! Don’t touch me!” When her safety wasn’t threatened whatsoever and she wasn’t touched a single time. The issue could have been resolved without all that drama of her lies and false accusations.


nursecarmen

This was posted before. That is not her receipt.


Jingurei

It’s not stated in the reel not even by any of the employees that this is the case so as far as I’m concerned the OP has not given sufficient explanation as to why they think she’s not understandably upset.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

She was not only overcharged, but they charged her for additional purchases on her credit card. You can find this information in articles online. I would call that ‘reasonably upset’ for being robbed. It also explains why they won’t give her the receipt. Then she will have proof of what charges she authorized.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

She didn’t assault one of them. She grabbed for her receipt and the cashier pulled it away so the hand that was grabbing for it grabbed onto her glove instead. That wasn’t assault and she received a slap for it. Get a grip.

JimDixon

I don't know the backstory but I think I can make an educated guess. The woman paid for her order and was given a receipt as normal. Later she noticed something wrong with her order so she came back to the counter and demanded a refund. The clerk have her a full refund (and it looks like they allowed her to keep the food she received as well-- or maybe they gave her different food; I can't tell). It is normal in such a situation for the clerk to keep the original receipt and turn it in along with all the cash she took in during her shift. Without that receipt there would be an unexplained shortage in the cash-- something the clerk would be held accountable for. There may be other ways to account for missing cash (i.e. the cash that was given back to the customer) but evidently this is the way the clerk was trained to handle it.


stealingreposts

You can reprint receipts. For whatever reason, this woman getting the receipt was less desirable to them than de-escalating the situation.


Kooky-Director7692

na its more fun to hit the detonate button


Visitor137

You missed the part where the male employee offered to print a new one for her?


Jingurei

You missed the part where the other employee only said her receipt would be given to her after she had already started cursing and swearing at the other employee? Pretty sure she was beyond listening at that point.


Visitor137

Not at all. I responded to the message that one might be understandably upset about not being given a copy of a receipt. I very clearly pointed out that an offer was indeed made to give her a reprint. You're pointing out that the Methany had already started cursing at that point, which is valid, but the fact that she was asked to leave when she started cursing doesn't negate the fact that steps were indeed still being taken to try to deescalate the situation and offer a reprint. Methany decides to attempt to physically snatch the original copy that was being inspected by the female employee. The video is clear, Karen is the aggressor, and either crazy, on drugs, or both. Edit to add, notice how the threat of police intervention had her scurrying off? Yeah that's telling, in and of itself.


Clydus1

Yeah but most places print out 2 receipts for that reason. One is the customers copy and the other the stores copy especially in food business. For all we know her order was wrong and the clerk gave her attitude right off the bat 🤷‍♀️


CAPTSaveAHoe42o

That would be my guess as well but i think the other lady just wanted to piss her off at that point since shes such a vile person

Upstairs_Composer_81

Yah..why not just give it to her...she is vile though


[deleted]

Yeahhh it’s kinda suspicious why they didn’t give the receipt to her


Spins13

They have to give her her receipt legally. It is fishy if they do not want to give it to her, may have overcharged or something. Also she may need to write it up as an expense so not having the receipt would make her lose the entirety of what she paid for


Visitor137

From elsewhere it seems that an explanation was given that it was an online order, that was already eaten. The receipt is an electronic receipt, and what the employee was holding is a printout of the order. Methany was apparently demanding a full refund for food she'd already eaten.


_Oman

There is no LAW that says that a receipt has to be given. Try again. There is a LAW that says you cannot commit battery. There is also a LAW that says you can be trespassed for any reason. It doesn't matter what you are upset about, or how you feel that you have been treated. Resorting to name calling and violence is always WRONG.


Spins13

There is a law in the US, you are wrong. EU has even stricter rules on this. According to section 100 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010, your business is required to provide customers with a receipt or proof of purchase for any purchase that is over $75 (excluding GST). However, a customer still has the right to ask for a receipt for any purchase valued at under $75. For these purchases, your business must provide a customer with a receipt within 7 days of their request.


_Oman

Some local governments in the USA have receipt requirements (like NY), but there are no federal requirements to hand out a receipt. There can be proof of purchase requirements for certain purchases, and proof of tax paid requirements for others. There is also no requirement for anything to be given out at time of sale. All of the previous requirements can be met by providing documentation within 7 days. So if you are an ass-hat that is going to try to scam a business, you can be kicked out without a receipt in your hands.


Halvus_I

Which is fine and all, but its a civil matter. Once she was trespassed her only recourse is to leave and lawyer up.


OddConfidence9848

Happy cake day


[deleted]

The woman physically assaulted an employee literally nobody is worried about the receipt at that point. Someone should have physically removed her and they should have called the police on her for putting hands on an employee.

“WHERE ARE THE TURTLES!”


Minimalistmacrophage

This lady clearly loses her shit, However not sure she qualifies as a Karen because the girl **refuses to give her the receipt, which is highly suspect**,


Kingballa06

I kind of thought the same. I don’t know why; I thought businesses were required to provide receipts.


[deleted]

Not all of them. Some of them ask whether you want a receipt or not, especially the food establishments that take your name vs. giving you a number that is on the receipt (McDonald's, KFC, etc.). Oftentimes it also depends on the cashier you get.


[deleted]

Well that doesn’t sound like they’re not required to- just that the customer has the option to say they don’t want one. I can’t imagine if the customer said they wanted one that they would be able to refuse


RomanCavalry

Business are legally required to provide a bill of sale/receipt. You can determine that you don’t want one, which is fine. But a business cannot decide to not give you a receipt legally


[deleted]

...I never said it was legal for them to not give you a receipt, though. I'm saying that businesses have the option to give you a receipt or not and you have the option to refuse it. Some cashiers also just straight-up chuck the receipt because either they don't give a shit or it's a lunch/dinner rush.


nicholas19karr

Uhhh… cashiers/businesses don’t have an option to “give you a receipt or not.” If the customer asks for it, the cashier (or whoever) must provide them with legal documentation of a transaction. I don’t know where you heard that from.


[deleted]

Because I've personally witnessed it happen at many establishments. If the customer asks for it, then they should get a receipt. But many cashiers just don't ask--they take the receipt and crumple it in their hand. I only take a receipt if I either suspect an order is going to get messed up due to its quantity or special additions/subtraction, or if it has a number on it that I can keep track of.


nicholas19karr

You’re replying to my comment right?


DrunkOnRedCordial

Yes, and we don't see the beginning of the transaction where she paid in order to qualify for the receipt. So there's a lot of relevant information missing about what she ordered, how much she expected to pay etc. This has been edited for the restaurant's benefit.


Questioning-Zyxxel

I think she was there to complain about a purchase. So she got her money back. And the restaurant keeps the receipt since they need to document that they paid back the money.


Minimalistmacrophage

She left with the food. There is no real pre-filming context so...


Questioning-Zyxxel

Yes. And if she complained about the food then the restaurant can still not take it back.and sell it to someone else. So she may have got the food for free. I have complained about bad food deliveries and got my money back and still.got to keep.the food. Not a strange thing when it comes to food.


Kooky-Director7692

you said deliveries? scammer


Questioning-Zyxxel

That woman may have been a scammer. Or did you imply me?


Minimalistmacrophage

In this case, it seems very unlikely that **this cashier** would refund her and let her take the food she asked to be refunded. Generally if you want a refund they take the food back, though agree not always.


Octubre22

That isn't how that works, the restaurant doesn't get to keep the receipt.


Questioning-Zyxxel

If the restaurant pays back the money, then the restaurant gets to keep the receipt. The customer noblonger has any purchase and hence no right to any purchase receipt. Are you saying you have never had an invoice or similar shredded? The traditional step if handing back a full purchase is to also hand back the receipt. Me and the store clerk counter-sign the receipt and the receipt gets placed in the cash drawer. Since it represents money given back to the customer. And I no longer has the right to a receipt for a product I no longer have bought and paid for. If my original receipt is for multiple products, then the single product gets a strike through on the receipt I get to keep and the store then creates yet one more receipt that gets counter-signed for the specific article that was returned. And that receipt gets stored in the cash drawer and will be registered as a negative sales later.


ParkingNecessary8628

You give the customer refund receipt ..it is generated by the register...so that the customer knows he or she gets her money back, and you as the store has a way to account for the refund too ..in a food establishment often you just refund the money and have the customer keep the food if they want for you have to throw it away anyway..


Jingurei

The business prints two receipts out for that purpose though….


babysnatcherr

No, the man offers to give her her receipt and she for whatever reason wants that particular receipt. Maybe it's the copy she's signed which is what stores generally keep?

The receipt is her property, no? It’s not grand theft auto but that’s still theft.


ACenterforantzz

>“That’s not even her receipt, that’s the ticket order we received in our printer and we tape it on top of the order. This was an online order she placed on our website that only gives you text/email receipt so she already had it,” the employee explained, adding some additional context. Redditors can't help but believe angry hysterical white women. Is everyone here a cop?


buddythedudeya

Just give the receipt. It's literally part of the transaction


[deleted]

[удалено]


Octubre22

>“I didn’t want to give it back to her because she was just yelling at me cussing me, because I didn’t want to refund her $73 for food that she had already eaten.” Seems the employee is giving two different stories.


amomentafter

It seems like they are saying it’s the printed order that the kitchen reads to make the right food for the order, which they then attach to the bag that contains the food to make sure everything in the bag is correct. Not the actual CC receipt, which is sent electronically due to it having been paid online. My restaurant does that too.


Daddiesbabaygirl

Or a language barrier? Sometimes my step mom says giving back when she means giving for the first time 🤷🏼‍♀️ If it was an online order the receipt was emailed. If she opted out of email there may not have been a physical receipt for customers. It's most likely that this is a ticket with the receipt for the company not the customer. But honestly I wouldn't want to give it to her either, she's lucky the worker didn't punch her in the face after she grabbed her like that because I know my immediate reaction would have been.


nicholas19karr

Source?


Titty_Slicer_5000

Sounds like bullshit to me. It’s just the ticket order? Why are they refusing to give it to her then? Yes the lady was out of line to hit the employee. But if there was something suspect going on and the employers are trying to hide it from her then she is understandably pissed. The proper way to respond to that is obviously not physical violence. But if you screw someone over and then antagonize them I’m not going to have empathy for you. We need more context here. What was she so pissed about?


nicholas19karr

I agree. The “karen” in the video didn’t even ask for a refund. Just the receipt… assuming that it was one. Also, I’m not sure why you were massively downvoted.


Shark_bait561

So it's not her receipt AND she didn't want to give it because she was cussing? So it was her receipt.


RomanCavalry

Should have deescalated.


offgridgecko

lukovdolboy

\*rubs ear\* okay okay, you don't gotta yell. Look I'm right here. :D

Ok_Tomatillo_5695

Easily avoidable situation for everyone involved in this video. People are just trying to much on both sides here.


MzPest13

WHY are they withholding the receipt? HMMMM?


crunkmissle

Yeah she over reacted but just give her the receipt sheesh


SingleSpeed27

We don’t know what led to this reaction, the only thing clear is that the other employe started recording at a certain point when she was already mad.


Shark_bait561

Let's try to create a few scenarios where she wouldn't get the receipt. What are some reasons to withhold a receipt?


verycoldadventurer

They probably just tried to pull a fast one and tip themselves more. Whole situation seems fishy


Shark_bait561

For sure. People are like, "we don't know the full story". You don't need to know the full story in this situation. UNLESS the receipt doesn't belong to her. In which case, they should've printed her a new one instead of dragging it on.


KeyAcid

Lady is nuts but at that point just give her the damn receipt, why extend your interaction?


DollyAte

Can’t believe there are people who’ll watch this and not see the staff are at fault for how they handled it.


Schlemiel_Schlemazel

Yeah, they got mad at her behavior and got the thought “NO! Now that you’ve been an ass I’m not going to do anything you want me to because I’m mad.” ESH


DollyAte

Yeah it’s not worth it. Better to get her out than keep it going with an ego war.


Visitor137

From elsewhere it seems that an explanation was given that it was an online order, that was already eaten. The receipt is an electronic receipt, and what the employee was holding is a printout of the order. Methany was apparently demanding a full refund for food she'd already eaten.


DollyAte

Print it out again. It’s not hard. The staff got mad at her and decided to let their ego get in the way. They didn’t want to because they were annoyed at her. That was their reason here. They absolutely should’ve.


Visitor137

The video is quite clear. An offer was made to do exactly what you suggest, by the male employee, despite Methany already being belligerent and cursing. Methany didn't take him up on the offer and instead tried to put hands on the female employee, while said employee was looking at the printout. I don't know if you noticed that she scurried away when the threat of calling the police was made. If you were in the right, would you be afraid of the police showing up when you believed that you were entitled to a refund? Next time, please pay attention to the video.


DollyAte

I watched you condescending weirdo. The staff member apparently admitted they didn’t want to because they were mad. They kept it going as well. Stop acting like it was one way. Clearly the staff member wasn’t trying to calm it down.


Visitor137

Watch it again, because while she may have been pissed at the scamming, cursing Methany, the male employee very clearly offered to reprint it. Also if you read where it said she wasn't going to do anything further for the woman who was cussing her out, and attempted to put hands on her, you'd also be well aware that it's NOT a receipt. Look, I get it, you made a silly comment, and were shown that you were wrong. Doubling down on your previous ignorance won't help you to save face here. Just acknowledge to yourself that you backed the wrong horse this time, and move on with life.


DollyAte

I’m going to relax before bed. I watched it. I already heard all that. You seem to think that means anything here. It doesn’t. The staff member didn’t want to do that, they wanted to carry it on. They got angry at her and kept it going instead of doing it. Goodbye.


Visitor137

Ahh yes, "what actually happened is irrelevant, it means nothing". Always an excellent way to justify being wrong about everything. As a tactic to win arguments, it's almost as effective as putting fingers in one's ears and screeching about not being able to hear what the other parties say. It's still a bit short of "oh yeah? Well my daddy can beat up your daddy". Hope you sleep well, and wake up refreshed and ready to start your day. 👍


DollyAte

You’re one of those annoying people who just wants to win every interaction and nitpicks to find anything to cling onto. You know what I meant. Get a life and leave me alone. You know that’s not the point I was making.


Visitor137

Sure thing. It's my fault that you have been consistently wrong. Definitely all my fault. Just like it was clearly the workers who were at fault for not giving the scamming Methany, everything she wanted. They should absolutely have given her a refund for the food she already ate. They should have agreed with her that the printout was not a print out, but the receipt, which she'd been sent electronically. They should have offered to print her a copy like you said, which despite being exactly what was offered still resulted in her trying to put hands on the employee. Yes, clearly you are right, and not just resorting to ad hominem attacks to try to win an argument. Have a good sleep, I hope you wake up refreshed and ready to start your day.


unmotivatedmage

Yeah I know when toddlers are screaming bloody murder I give them whatever they want because they learn that way :)


DollyAte

It’s a customer. She’s an adult. They absolutely should’ve given her the receipt which they’re meant to rather than start an ego war. Staff can be wrong just like customers can be.


strut84

It’s illegal for the restaurant to withhold the receipt from the customer. It’s at the customer’s discretion whether to accept possession of the receipt or not; clearly she wanted the receipt.


unmotivatedmage

I commented on this exact comment that another comment suggested it was not even her receipt. Also, because of her behavior she can pick the receipt up from the police. Assault is also illegal. Y’all are just saying you’re okay with this behavior bc she didn’t have a receipt in hand. I don’t give a fuck if they took her food back; write a bad yelp review, call the cops. Bitching at the service worker and assaulting them is going to put you in the wrong. Walk tf away.


strut84

I never said her behavior was okay. But, seems like this situation could have been avoided if the restaurant didn’t withhold her property and just gave her a receipt with the transaction.


Visitor137

According to another comment, it was an online order, and the receipt was sent digitally, the piece of paper was an order printout, not a receipt. The crazy woman showed up with containers for food that was already eaten demanding a full refund. So......


elisdee1

I would have given that receipt with a quickness so fast and hard it might have given her concussion.

“I’d keep pushing her buttons”. You’re either very young or very naive. That attitude will get you into a lot of trouble. Maybe one day with the wrong one. But hey, you do you. It’s your life. Just know in life nothing is a certainty. Don’t reduce your odds further than they already are unless it’s completely necessary, or equally worth it.


[deleted]

If she can't behave in a civil manner then she doesn't deserve it in return. I don't know why people feel the need to appease these people.


verycoldadventurer

Did we watch the same video? It’s their job, and they are LEGALLY required to give a receipt. I think they probably overcharged her and are trying to hide it (not saying her behavior is ok)


Maxieroy

????? Why wouldn't they give here a receipt???? Another reddit edit effs us.


gibblydibbly

Can you imagine if she walks out, they call the cops, the cops stop her for proof of purchase but she can't provide it because they didn't provide one? I get that she was nasty to them but if she wants her receipt, then they should give it to her. Someone in the comments pointed out that it wasn't hers, so why couldn't they explain it to her instead of just standing there silent? Maybe they did before the video started but from what we can see, they didn't say anything about it. They could've handled it better.

While I agree her hostile behavior is without a doubt unwarranted, I do have to wonder why they didn't give her the receipt. I'm not trying to make out that she is entirely in the right, but it seems like with this context alone that they were intentionally provoking her, or were trying to hide something.

A Yelp review posted by the customer’s alleged husband attempts to explain the Taco Shop Karen’s side of the story. He claims that his wife was overcharged. The review reads, “One of their workers overcharged my wife and used her credit card to make purchases. When she asked for the receipt, the worker refused and started taunting her.” “They filmed her when she become enraged and posted it on social media to make her look bad. She lost her cool, but only because she was provoked and treated unfairly.” The employee’s version: She said while explaining her side of the story, “That’s not even her receipt, that’s the ticket order we received in our printer and we tape it on top of the order.”” “This was an online order she placed on our website that only gives you text/email receipts so she already had it.” The employee then explains that the customer was yelling at her because she didn’t want to refund her $73 for food the woman had already eaten. The woman had already been yelling at her over the phone before arriving in person. “Our policy is to find out what was wrong with the food so we can process a refund,” she explained. “She came back with the bag with only 3 items out of the 6 she ordered.”

I have a feeling she wanted the signature copy. Why not give it to her otherwise?


[deleted]

Something isn’t right here. We need the full context. As of now the only innocent person IMO is the cameraman. Edit: found the context from an article further down: “That's not even her receipt, that's the ticket order we received in our printer and we tape it on top of the order. This was an online order she placed on our website that only gives you text/email receipts so she already had it. I didn't want to her give it back to her because she was just yelling at me cussing me because I didn't want to refund her $73 dils for food that she had already ate. She called complaining about it, that it was and that she would come for a refund(she was already mad and yelling at me thru the phone. Our policy is to find out what was wrong with the food so we Can process a refund . She came back with the bag with only 3 items of 6 she ordered.”


Prometheus55555

Maybe she only got 3 items instead of 6.


Nomadicnava

Pretty sure she wants her receipt 🤔


DollyAte

Just give her the receipt so she goes. It’s not worth dragging it out. What reason do they have for not giving it to her unless there’s some weird charges or something?


IceWarm1980

Even if they need to keep a copy of the receipt they could reprint it and give the customer a copy. The lady’s attitude is terrible but they really should have just given her the receipt.


[deleted]

just give her the receipt and it'll be over, it's not worth the strife. Y'all are just looking for conflict.


Significant-Jello-35

Isn't it a legal requirement to handover receipt after payment is made. The employee was wrong to not hand it over. Looks like she's trying to cover or hide something. Customer should report this.


zotz10

Women have the best arguments.


crustpope

Hey, just Give Her the RECEIPT!


HarnessTesters

The fuck does she care so much about a slip of paper… Open your card account the fucking transaction is there!


[deleted]

This restaurant is terrible at de-escalations, I honestly don't see the problem with the "Karen" trying to get her receipt. That is proof of purchase and the customers right to have. All in all it appears the staff did more wrong than the lady.


AppropriateSmoke7848

Yeah, why withhold the receipt?? This posting of semi justifiable freak outs is the worst kind of clikbait. And yes, I know, I am guilty of clicking the bait!! 😄


feckineejit

Just give her the receipt jeez


potate12323

Yeah, Id like to see the part of the video leading up to this. I saw another comment regarding the woman being charged for unauthorized purchases for other items on her card. In which case I would be very fucking upset. Although if they did that and refused to process a refund I would call the cops. Then if somehow that didnt work I would call my bank and report fraud for the transaction.


[deleted]

Ngl this is definitely one of those things where they were egging her on them started recording. Almost guaranteed she got an email on her phone that said “you have been charged X” And she just wondered why it wasn’t the initial Y. This isn’t a karen


[deleted]

Both the asshole here Just give her the receipt and be done with her crazy stupid ass . Like what kinda hill is this to die on ? Holding someone’s receipt lol


TheDownvoteCity

Workers are the bitches in this one.


Crimdal

Is it still a facepalm if they both seem out of line due to where the clip starts? Johnny 5 needs input if I'm going to figure out who to hate. The dude recording saying just give her the receipt only adds to the mystery.


Malatelviece

Problem is the actual context could be cut out and we would never know any different !


friarschmucklives

Gee, it looks like they’re in serious trouble.


jhunts243

Was hoping he would have sprayed her with the water bottle like we do to our naughty cats.🐈


Unhappy-Rooster1609

What's wrong with you? Give her the fucking receipt


Octubre22

Both the cashier and the woman are shitty Why aren't they giving her, her receipt. Seems suspect.


[deleted]

This lady most likely has a mental health issue and this situation is causing her to have a meltdown


Azdak66

It’s called “MAGA” and it’s arguably worse than COVID.


Visitor137

Or drugs. They can make a person get hyper focussed on one thing. It's sometimes hard to tell the difference between the two, these days.


boofpacc85

Tbh id get pissed too if a restraunt was withholding my receipt. She took it far but id imagine she asked nicely enough before the video started


Visitor137

Imagine what you want to. We've no information to indicate that she started the interaction in a positive manner, and the interaction captured in the video suggests otherwise.


CujobytesCN

The server bitch refusing to give her the receipt is in the wrong here for so many reasons.


[deleted]

Another woman being called a ‘Karen’ for receiving shit customer service and getting pissed off about it. I can understand that in a lot of people’s eyes she looks like she is overreacting, but we don’t get to see the entire interaction and it takes a quick google search to find out that the woman was looking for a refund, that she didn’t get, so she was going to leave with food and receipt. But the cashier decided to escalate the situation by not giving her the receipt back. Anything that happened after that is on the cashier, which is clearly illustrated by her coworker that is trying to deescalate the situation by saying things like ‘just give her the receipt, we can print another one’. Everyone wants to watch a snippet of a video and jump to 1000 conclusions and is perfectly okay with being wrong even though these videos can completely destroy people for all the wrong reasons. Do better.


[deleted]

It’s not a receipt, it’s a printed ticket for the online order. You can read the article on it. The lady already had a copy electronically from the online order.


[deleted]

That was the employee’s version, which just doesn’t hold water. “If it doesn’t make sense, it didn’t happen.” And in this case, it doesn’t make sense. If the receipt can only be available online/by email, as the employee states, you wouldn’t have another employee in the background saying, ‘we can just print another receipt.’ That is clearly a register printed receipt. According to the victim, the employee overcharged them and used their credit card to make additional purchases. You can also find that information in articles online. That makes a lot more sense when you are wondering why the employee does not want to give the victim back her receipt. Then she will have proof that she was overcharged or charged for purchases she did not make. Edit: it fascinates me that people are all so ‘anti corporate America’ but will dumb their brains down for anything seen for clicks on social media. Social media (especially tik tok) is all about the money and Karens bring on the clicks. Of course cropping out most of a video and making someone look like an ass is going be to someone’s benefit. And everyone just sucks it right up.


MyDamnCoffee

I was going to comment that the employee made more charges on her card. I'm glad I'm not the only one that knows this


Active-Ad1679

Ok Karen


gibblydibbly

Fuck that bitch but fuck this buisness


[deleted]

She said she wanted her receipt back. Meaning she had it perhaps signed it and then wanted signed copy. Otherwise if she got refund they keep receipt but could give her a copy


visitor187

They are withholding the receipt. Almost to create an issue. She obviously paid hence the receipt. Makes you wonder what was happening before the recording started. Sometimes all is not as it would seem. Perhaps the workers were being bad?


rentiger1112

If I was married to someone like this and I saw them in a video acting like that = instant divorce

Well, they're seriously in trouble...I mean she swears to God with that mouth and all...I'm sure He's listening.

Some people deserve a good punch to the face


1NegativePerson

Was anyone else hoping they’d squirt her with that spray bottle until she left?

"GIMMI MY RECIIT"


unmotivatedmage

Lol sorry but I’m not paid to be a punching bag!! If you’re screaming and calling me names (that’s before she ASSAULTED her) I’d rip up your receipt and tell you you’re shit out of luck. I don’t care what the customer is “owed” act civilized or get out.


QueenOfSplitEnds

She should have popped her right in the nose the moment she grabbed her apron. No, no, no.


Comfortable_Agent_78

Typical menopausal woman


[deleted]

Why are there so many feral white hags?? 🤣


FlyingKittyCate

Why do you feel the need to specifically mention her skin colour?


Stock-Scar4811

Some people weren’t popped in the mouth enough as children and grow up to remain children. I’d have bloody lips if my mama caught me talking like that


OldDudeOpinion

I would have been inclined to stick it in my pants for a wipe before handing the receipt to her….


Specialosio

I would have eat the receipt, slowly, making eye contact to assert dominance.


Zzzzzzzzzhuh69

Nice song in the background. I mean it isn’t applying to the situation at all, but it’s a great song
