When you walk into Karen\u2019s Diner<\/a>, you might be fooled by the charming 50\u2019s diner decor, but leave all expectations of hospitality at the door. You\u2019re more likely to be greeted with a \u2018What do you want\u2019 than a \u2018Welcome\u2019, and if you get in the way, it\u2019ll be \u2018MOVE!<\/em>\u2019 rather than \u2018Excuse me\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Robin Clarke, VETTING.com<\/a>\u2019s CRO, recently spent an evening at their Manchester location. Under his waitress\u2019 icy glare, he panic-ordered a milkshake to accompany the spicy wings. While delicious, the wings turned out to be mild compared to the third degree burns his ego suffered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With short, asymmetrical haircuts and wits as sharp as their tone, the waitstaff (also known as \u2018Karens\u2019) unleash on hapless customers with biting insults and chaotic entitlement. In order to survive, we recommend ordering some liquid courage in the form of a cocktail or shooter – perhaps the \u2018Are You Taking the Piss?\u2019 or the \u2018I\u2019ve Been Waiting 10 Minutes for Service\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your name is really Karen, you\u2019ll get yours for free!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the aftermath, Robin said, \u201cI was only expecting my burger to be grilled – not me! My poor friend\u2019s vegan status was announced to the entire place via megaphone, triggering a resounding chorus of boos from the staff and other diners! I knew then and there we absolutely had to help them improve how they vetted their employees!<\/strong>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, VETTING.com has partnered with Karen\u2019s Diner to streamline their screening, and it\u2019s been working overtime checking new team members! The hope is the quick turnaround of Digital Reference Checks<\/a> within 24hrs will enable Karen\u2019s Diner to find some sweeter employees – ideally with no verbal assault record. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

VETTING.com\u2019s Chief Technology Officer, Paul Wood, dabbed sweat from his forehead as he reported, \u201cThe system is under the pump, but we\u2019re committed to the mission!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, we spoke to some current Karen\u2019s employees about VETTING.com, and they seemed to think the screening was for something else\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Karen #192 from Sydney CBD location told us, \u201cWe f**kin\u2019 love it! We\u2019ve been able to tweak the Reference templates to make sure all our Karens will deliver the rudest possible service and the most entertaining clap-backs. You\u2019ve got to be rough as guts to be a f**kin\u2019 Karen – that\u2019s what we\u2019re screening for.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They\u2019ve dubbed the Right to Work check<\/a> the \u2018Right to Riot\u2019, and reimagined DBS Checks<\/a> to be the \u2018Dangerous Bitch Scan\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The results of this background screening remain to be seen, so a word of advice to those visiting a Karen\u2019s Diner in the meantime\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the love of Karen, enjoy the food, but do not<\/em><\/strong> ask to speak to the manager!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
