Hats off to this guy for how tactfully he responded to Karen. The man decided to have a little fun and answer her questions as literally and honestly as possible when an unpleasant Karen - whom he playfully called "Douchebagette" - approached him for assistance in the store.

Have you ever been taken for a worker? Everyone has. Therefore, it's okay if you have. It's alright if you haven't—nobody wants to acknowledge it. But there is a place on Reddit called r/IDontWorkHereLady where it is safe to discuss difficult topics. It turns out that people sometimes mistake you for a staff employee.
"Do you work here?" is a common question. The recipient is a user on Reddit with the username u/Wiggle_it_loose. However, the guy is blunt about it. He believes the reason he gets approached so frequently is due to his "retail face."
This time, a very unpleasant woman in the grocery led this gentleman to resort to Plan B. When the lady, dubbed a "Douchebagette" for obvious reasons, bombarded u/Wiggle_it_loose with orders to grab her eyelash curlers, he chose a lethal weapon. Hint: cold, harsh honesty.

Before the epic story begins, let's get one thing straight regarding Karen, whether you know it or not. Karens don't normally expect quick comebacks when they offend someone. They expect the other person to simply put their head down and listen to the insults hurled at them, especially if they work at any company.
Scroll down and take a look.
Guys!! Prepare yourselves for a crazy ride.
