A Karen calls an arts and crafts store and demands a pizza… No, this isn't a punchline for a joke—but everyone who has worked in restaurants or retail wishes that it was. These workers have seen their fair share of wild demands and demanding wild persons—and it only takes one screaming customer meltdown in the lobby of your establishment to make you reconsider your entire line of work. But at least in person, most people have the good graces to behave politely, but phone conversations and email exchanges are another story, that one step of removal emboldens a surprising amount of people to say and do insane things in the same way that "keyboard warriors" are quick to jump down your throat with negative comments online.
