I have had several but one particular one that stands out. I was working in the gift wrap department in a major federated chain. It was Christmas so it was very hectic. This happened on my last day of contingent work and then it was back to college after Christmas break.

This “Karenated” lady asked if we could wrap a huge stuffed animal almost as big as me. I told her we have no gift boxes that large. We could A) put together two corrugated boxes or 2) tie an attractive bow on the stuffed animal’s neck. That apparently wasn’t good enough for this lady. She jumped over our counter and starting going through all our boxes to see if we were lying or not, I guess. I said to myself, “It’s time to go.” Another girl and I got in trouble for calling security. But what were we supposed to do when customers go wild ? This is back when “the customer is always right* even when they weren’t.
