Simo - The Red Shoe Diaries (Part 1)

It was kinda funny and the food was good. My kids were a little apprehensive especially when the staff came over but it was all harmless stuff.

Feel like there is a joke there some of us are missing out on. Also, no wonder you so big, you had three dinners for dinner.

What is a Karen diner? Like the wait staff acts entitled?

They are popping up everywhere. About 6-7 in Australia. Several in the UK.

And yep, basically a diner where the sole goal of the staff is to be rude as hell.

I’d imagine it’s a lot easier to hire and train when the behaviors you were going to get anyway are now on-brand

Check out Eddie’s Halls YouTube channel for a great look at it. Haha.

I actually think finding people who can act entitled and be rude all the time. But do it in a way that the diners find funny could be hard. I felt like the staff at this one had a very small repartee so repeated a lot of stuff.

When I started reading this exchange I thought your wife’s name might be Karen.

I know of those Karen memes but that someone would turn that into a business is the most GenZ thing I have ever heard of.

Do you tip them more if they did a good job of being a dickhead?

I feel like shaking my head and crying out ‘I don’t understand this world anymore’. But I don’t want to take over @Cyrrex job.

Funny you should mention tip because when you pay they literally ask if you are giving 10, 15 or 20% tip. Cheeky fkers !

The gym has superhero’s painted on all the walls. They have done a pretty good job of it. Most of them are holding weights or flexing.
