Did anybody else get yelled at by a Karen for not wearing a mask during COVID?
That was one of my most memorable COVID memories.
It was in the heat of COVID, I went to a convenience store down the street from me that was owned by some Middle Eastern guys. I forgot my mask.. so I just put my shirt up over my nose. When I walked in, the guy who ran the place had a mask on, but I looked over and there was this girl stocking the shelves who was maskless. I knew they didn't really care, but since that is the case last thing I wanted to do was start any trouble for them.
So I picked up some ice and maybe a drink or something, went up and paid. I turned around to leave, hands full, and my shirt slipped off my face.. just at that moment, Karen walks around the corner into the store with her husband and starts cussing up a storm, calling me a piece of shit and every name in the book. I look over at the lady who worked there with her mask off, she looked horrified. I looked back at the lady cussing at me and she was still yelling shit. Then I looked back at the maskless employee, she was still looking horrified. I looked back at the lady, she was still yelling at me. She didn't seem to notice the employee with her mask off, she was so hyper focused on me. Her husband was just standing there completely silent, probably embarrassed. So I just left.
A couple days later I went back to the store and the clerk started cheering and clapping for me.
