Hey Pandas, What Is An Experience You've Had With Entitled People? (Closed)

Third-party recruiter contacts me. Fine, I am actually looking for a better position, which I mention (with the specifics). During the interview she asks what I want (I already told her but nvm) : full remote and better salary (actual is hybrid 3/2 and 28k, I asked for 32). She told me 28k is fine and full remote is not possible. Mmmmh... ok? So you just decided to waste my time?
Btw, I'm starting full remote with 33k next month...

Customers of McDonald's are the worst. Always met Karen's and Kyle's there. Once there was a lady with the Karen haircut who needed to get to the bathroom as I was mopping the hall there. I told her to be careful because the floor was wet and she demanded I take paper towels and dry the water. When I told her no, she "slipped" on the water and scream. She obviously wasn't hurt and was doing it for attention. When neither more or my manager would pay attention to her, she got up in a huff and called the police to report unsafe conditions. She argued with two officers for thirty minutes on why I needed to be arrested. They ended up arresting her. My manager banned her from that location. She tried coming in a few weeks later and got arrested again for trespassing and destruction of property. She swung a chair into the kiosk when we told her to leave. She tried bribing us $1000 each to keep quiet.

This was at school a couple years ago, and I think I was the entitled person in this scenario. I refused to switch places with a girl with a broken leg during lunch so that she could sit with her friends. It was against the rules and I didn't want to get in trouble. I was then declared a Karen.

I have no idea if this counts and I’m sorry if this isn’t “entitlement” but basically this story is about some lady and her 5 kids aged between like 3-14. So my family and I went to this resort campground thing for the first time when I was 13 I think and my brother and I were playing on trampolines (there are only 2 at the park) and the other kids were angry because we wouldn’t let them use it. They told their mom and K literally chased us in her golf cart all the way back to my parents trailer and her spawn (the 3-8 year old ones only) stalked us around the campsite for like 3 days 😭 it was stressful for me at the time but honestly it’s fuckig hilarious.
Like imagine chasing 13 and 11 year olds in your fuckig golf cart because they wouldn’t get off a trampoline for your hellspawn

I was a pizza delivery driver about thirty years ago. I delivered a pizza to a law office, and said, “Your change is eleven cents,” in a pretty perfunctory manner, as even non-tippers always said to keep it when the amount was that small. She said, “Okay,” and held out her hand. I looked at my change and told her, “The smallest change I have right now is a quarter.” She said, coldly, “That’s fine,” and stretched her hand out further. I handed her the quarter, and she gave me this sh*tty little mean girls smirk and walked away with her pizza. A f****ing lawyer took $0.14 from a 19-year-old pizza delivery driver. I’m sure she’s had a lovely career suing orphanages and soup kitchens.

When I was in elementary school, there was this one girl, let's call her Ella, who walked around acting like a princess. She would demand people let her go to the front of the line at lunch and would take her sweet little time piling up quite a bit of food and end up wasting it, and god forbid if someone were to deny her, she's yell at them, shove them out of the way and go to the front of the line anyway. I have no clue where she got off thinking she owned the place.
She also demanded people's lunch seats during lunch events since she wanted to be closer to the stage. I hated her, never listened to her, and ended up getting bullied by her.

I worked at Macy's in 07 as a go back person. (sender of merchandise back to their proper depts when left elsewhere by shoppers) I was on break shopping, employees were allowed to and I had this very nice Marc Ecko women's top. Red, slim fit with a raised black filigree design of two old West six shooter pistols crossed into women's legs in stilettos. A chick looking like a Rocky Horror extra walks by exclaiming how cute the top was I go yea it's pretty tight I'm digging it, and had it in my hand ready to go pay for it. That was quite literally the extent of the interaction I couldn't even remember if there was eye contact. I had stashed it in the bottom of a round clothing rack rung hidden by clothes. Lots of employees did that when they found stuff they liked but couldn't get to right away, knowing shoppers don't bother disorganized clothes. 10 minutes later after my break I get asked by my super if I was on a scheduled break a few minutes ago. Of course I said I even clocked it on time. She said she thought so because a female customer came up to her saying I was extremely rude when I didn't help her with something. I just felt it y'know? This clown was the only shopper I had interaction with that day. I asked the super "black Marilyn Monroe hair, red glitter lipstick, silver eye shadow and red thigh high boots? She hollered. She goes yeaaa it's cool I let her rant about how she's never been treated that way even in Marciano (Guess stuff in a Guess store I guess idk) she said she told the chick that she would reprimand me and that the chick was happy with that and off she f****d. Don't get me wrong I like cosmetics and thigh highs as much as the next female but don't tell a lie in them it's not getting you taken any more seriously than if you just packed make-up on only.

Note: this takes place in july of 2021.

Man: Excuse me There is no soap in the mens bathroom! how can you not have soap during Covid?!?
Librarian: uh, we're sorry, but we have Hand Sanitizer here.
Man: Alcohol doesn't work, it just moves the particles, soap breaks them down
(fun fact: hand sanitizer breaks down the protiens in pathogens, which works on Rhinoviruses, soap does not work on Rhinoviruses.)
Man: Do you know what soap does chemically?!?
Librarian: yes.
After a bit more arguing and yelling, he leaves.
and then he comes back
Man: What is your name!??
Librarian: why?
Man: I'm Gonna call the complaint hotline and report you for not having any soap!!
Librarian:..uh
Man: What is your name?!?
all the yelling has attracted another librarian.
Librarian 2: what is the problem sir?
Man: WHAT IS HER NAME?!?
Librarian 2: what?
Man: *points to other librarian* What is her name!?! I need to know her name so I can complain about her!!
Librarian 2: sir, please stop yelling.
Man: okay, fine.
after more arguing that I stopped paying attention to, he yells "You guys need to have S o a p here!!! hand sanitizer doesn't work, we're in a pandemic right now, millions have died, our president is very obviously sick!! You guys need to have Soap, am I just supposed to walk around with s**t on my hands!! that's disgusting, I just went to Jack In the Box!! You all are Dumbasses!"
he is told to leave, and amazingly, he does.

I was doing volunteer work and since we were short on volunteers I was very relieved that we were getting a bunch of new ones to share the burden. But in the volunteer meeting the coordinator had a bunch of new projects and asked people to pick what they wanted to do. Since I was literally doing more than any other volunteer and also had taken on the work of another volunteer who had dropped out, I assumed that these new projects were for the new volunteers. But then the coordinator turned to me and said, "What are YOU going to do?" I told her what I was ALREADY doing. She then said, "What ELSE are you going to do?" I just stared at her in shock.

I felt like quitting right then and there but the fact is that I wasn't doing the volunteer work for her, but because I enjoyed it and felt I was making a difference. Unfortunately the pandemic derailed the whole project shortly thereafter.

Asking a 'white' professional whose job description normally includes answering questions about their area of expertise (think along the lines of a hired accountant to do your taxes, an agent for gigs, or a realtor) why a particular question needed answering. The question was to specify my ethnicity, even though the house/job/thing in question had *NOTHING* to do with ethnicity (eg: Not looking to move into a refurb'd temple, not applying to a consulate position, characters in audition were not even human, etc.) ... and the professional could NOT understand why a non-sequitur demand for my ethnicity would make me nervous or take me aback. They treated it like 'why are you wasting my time with this?'

It was then that I realized that 'white' presenting people with 'white' names have had **SO LITTLE** opposition, prejudice and/or barriers all their lives that some of them don't 'get' what bias is.

In a situation like this, if someone asks them "So what's your ethnicity?" it's the same to them as a random question of "Hey, what'd you eat for breakfast?" - If you ask someone in the same situation who is non-white (in North America) "What's your ethnicity" with NO context, we immediately wonder "WHY... are you asking? Are you planning to exclude me or discount my qualifications based on this???"

I'd even go to say that many of us have experienced racism, racial bias as a low-key PTSD. We've been raised to be shoved into cubbyholes 'befitting' our race. Should we DARE to wander outside, we've been consistently shown that we'll be denigrated, whipped and denied a fair shake.

My friend told him to piss off for shouting in our years, he said our opinion didn’t matter for 2 reasons:
1. We are a school year behind him.
2. My friends shoes are from Asda (English walmart for those that don’t know).
By the way he was a complete stranger so he didn’t even know if we were younger than him, and also my friends shoes weren’t even from Asda.

This is very easy one; Fakefool and Imthafart. Never again.

A year ago I had a fairly large crush on someone. So I was committed to helping her with basically everything. She vented 4 times a day and I was there every time, I was the only one talking to her out of like 200 people as a friend and I was the only one giving everything I had, even letting her share my Netflix. Six months after this starts she turns on me suddenly announcing she has a bf out of nowhere, she said I never helped her and asked too much in return for a 2 way friendship and then spread lies about me getting most of that group of 200 people to turn on me. Having quite the crush on me that she knew of and seemed to go along with, it kinda wrecked me. Today I'm still not quite there and feeling the effects of it but I'm making some good progress finally

You spelled “Connecticut” wrong……
