A very rude guest
On that eventful evening, Karen Hastings emerged as an exceptionally challenging patron. She exuded an aura that suggested she had perhaps waltzed into the establishment with the sole intention of antagonizing every single member on staff. With an uncanny knack, she managed to magnify and critique even the most minuscule details, turning seemingly insignificant matters into fodder for her relentless, and often sharp-edged, complaints.
The staff members, while constantly trying to uphold their professional demeanor and friendly attitude, were on pins and needles, just waiting for that particular guest to wrap up and leave. When she eventually signaled for the bill, you could almost feel the palpable sense of relief that surged through the room among the employees. However, this brief moment of tranquility would be fleeting at best.
