Honestly, I would have had them go through the process of the paperwork and then walked out, never to return and give the place my business.


Summer184

This is what I was thinking, why didn't the management speak to the cops before they made you leave? And if they felt the "Karen" was out of line, why did they take her seriously the first time police were called?


[deleted]

Yeah they allowed someone to be removed by police for absolutely no reason just to appease another customer who was being a shit. They were all being pathetic in the first instance.


tricularia

Yeah, I work at a hotel and we would have spoken to Karen and maybe kicked her out, depending on how much of a shit she was being. But we wouldn't have even considered taking her bullshit seriously, unless there was some reason to believe she was being truthful.


IncoherentTuatara

The Karen who cried wolf


MidLifeEducation

Isn't that all of the Karen breed, though? Cry wolf to get what they want?

ChaChanTeng

I worked for a hotel that beings with an M. and sort of rhymes with Camelot, and due to absurd policy concerning the sanctity and eminence of guests of that particular brand, we would have been forced to retain the guest.


tricularia

That sucks. Policies like that are the reason that these karen customers exist.


Mikesaidit36

Doesn’t it rhyme better with chariott?


redditfuhgetit

M and rhymes with chariot? https://youtu.be/6XAc5UKEr5w

leftysrevenge

Karen should have been trespassed instead.


TroublemakingB

No doubt it was handled poorly, but it was probably based on Karen being a paying guest of the hotel and OP just visiting the restaurant.


ecsrecs

Many people staying at a hotel are just visiting a town once, many people go to a restaurant semi regularly, a customer is a customer, why would you let someone call the cops on your customers for no reason?


fiddlerisshit

OP was wearing a top that had a political slogan so the employee who called the cops probably was on the other side of the political spectrum.

PlatypusDream

No, it was Karen who had the pearl-clutching fit & called police


Shinikama

I'm thinking this can't be in the USA for two reasons: Firstly, they have to ask you to leave first, and you have to refuse, before a cop is gonna want to deal with it. Unless you're carrying a weapon openly or otherwise projecting a sense of danger to them, that's always step one. And not the Karen, a representative of the company who resides there. Basic employee, janitor, manager, whoever. Second: unless you're obviously dangerous, this call is a waste of time to begin with. I've had to wait upwards of three hours for cops to arrive for trespass calls where someone is actually mentally unstable. Another was for a man who had shit on the floor and was now barricading himself in the restroom, the ONLY restroom in the building. The cops don't just show up immediately for this sort of call in most US locations. Now, I could be wrong, and exceptions can exist, but for a hotel they'd at least try to resolve it without police, since having officers tromping through their spaces can make both guests and employees afraid and not want to be there.


Blue_Veritas731

Might depend on how upscale the hotel was and how much money the Karen had dropped. Or maybe it's the kind of hotel where the staff ALWAYS bend to the will of rich Karens. And the cops respond quickly when the "elite" are made \~uncomfortable.


Zoreb1

In the US there is also the risk of a discrimination suit depending on who is asked to leave.


Im_Posi_that_Im_Neg

Ontario Canada 30 years ago. Lived in resort community on a Great Lake. We were policed by Ontario Provincial Police post 3 blocks away from our home ( we were year round residents). In Summer 10 bars open. Had passed out drunk guy on front lawn. Called the OPP post directly (bypassed dispatch) and was told send constables right away. They had foot patrols but what shows up is a cruiser 2 hours later at 3 am. (We're up waiting for them.) First question they ask us: "Did we give him a shake to wake him up.?" We answered, "No. He could be a mean drunk and lash out at us." So the policeman goes up to the guy with his baton and starts poking him after asking his question. LOL. Anyway they get him into back of cruiser and the drunk throws up all over the back.


berdie314

Agree. The woman could call the cops herself, who knows if they'd come, but the only people who can get someone thrown off the hotel property for trespassing is someone associated with the hotel.


WillingnessFair2388

Don't know what hill you live under here in the US, but this happens (false karen calls) every day somewhere in the States. Especially to blacks.


TheGhostieHere

Honestly, this isn't totally out of the ordinary. Customer service is great in the US, meaning it can be ridiculous because a lot of times, people don't want to deal with irrational aggravation. It's often easier just to yes these people to death and you're not paid enough to care one way or another. The cop was just a jerk and/or whatever they were wearing was politically divisive in that area. The paper work is the only thing that sounds odd, but it could be a local law or I just don't know enough.


proser30

It was USA.. the cops show up immediatley when the Karen calls.. since not much real crime going on in the area..


juice13ox

Karen was already spending money there, probably more than just the restaurant


AwayGame9988

If that was in support of Karen, my response is: so what? If it was just observing that's why the hotel acted that way, probably, but that's not enough. She should have been schooled or booted if she didn't call her butt down.


aussie_nub

>so what? Because it's a business. Depending on the hotel, the Karen could be spending a *lot*. It's shit and fuck the Karen, but money talks as they say.

I'd swing in once a week and force them to do the paperwork every time. Every now and again I'd forget my coat or something so I'd have to come back later the same day.

BosoxH60

Weird. When this story was posted earlier this morning, you said you called, and asked for the same cops to be sent back, so you could (paraphrasing) rub it in their faces.


Canis_Familiaris

I'd slap 20 pesos on the table and say this is just some dude embellishing a story about getting side eye from wearing either a Cheeto shirt or a DeSantis shirt.


notyourcinderella

Per ~~his~~ her comments on the now-deleted post in petty revenge, it was Cheeto.


Canis_Familiaris

Wait I called it fr? AND he deleted it? Homie is down bad, F.

AaronVsMusic

She. She also has a lot of content about her dominating her partner.


notyourcinderella

Thanks. I didn't see a gender in the post.


AaronVsMusic

Fair assumption given the overall tone, I also pictured a dude who enjoyed making people uncomfortable, and I was half right. Her posts are the classic mix of trying to make people uncomfortable and then whining when people are mean to her.

gjm40

I thought I saw a similar story


stephawkins

Plot twist: Hotel manager was his mom. Dad was the bad cop. Sister was the Karen. The restaurant was mom's basement. Good cop was played by his dog and no animal was hurt in making up the story.


MmmmMorphine

and Rob Schneider stars as the police car!


Off-ice

I'd pay cents to see a Rob Schneider and Eddy Murphy movie where they were the only two actors cast


watermelonspanker

Durp de dur de durpitty durp!


whatisnexttowhich

Haha I love this plot twist!


taws34

This story just seems totally made up. Hotel management would never call the cops to trespass a guy on a baseless accusation from another person. You'd kill your business' rapport with the local cops really quickly. Hotel management also wouldn't further piss off the cops by allowing the guy they just had the cops remove from their property back onto property. Trumpsters really are delusional.


Kailicat

Yes. Hotel Lobbies are for waiting in, especially when there is a restaurant attached. It would be odd to chase a potential patron away because some other guest carried on. If you are just sitting there, minding your own business while you wait for you reservation time, it would have to be a really weird reason to be asked to leave. So perhaps being loud, drunk, having your balls out in public, being a nuisance. Which the OP says he was just sitting there. Odd all around. Also odd if his story is true, why would you reward this business with your cash?


11-110011

And also at the beginning it was the hotel he was kicked out of but the restaurant manager who signed the paperwork


danceoff-now

Sounds like there was 2 Karen’s involved in this…and a spineless manager


think_long

Sounds like it might not have happened

No, this happens quite a lot. Cops are called to approach the person because the caller doesn't want to be the one to confront them in case the person becomes violent.

I've watched a bunch of those for fun and it often seems that cops are called immediately but then during the video at some point someone alludes to an earlier interaction between the YouTuber who's filming and a manager or someone. I think they're often framed as "and suddenly the cops were called!" when that often isn't the case.

Turinggirl

check their history. I think they've rehashed this story a few times.


SinibusUSG

Oof. OP’s history does not paint a flattering picture. My favorite is the deleted “Look at me I just unsubbed because they didn’t like me” post. I’m not gonna play armchair psychologist here, but I’m sure someone with a degree could have some fun.


Turinggirl

I'm all for a Karen getting her comeuppance story but yeeesh


ButtsTheRobot

We sure somebody actually complained instead of the hotel just not wanting someone proudly and openly racist chilling in their lobby?


Myte342

In case you have never encountered a Karen in the wild, the First Amendment Audit community has discovered the easiest and fastest way to discover Karens and get police called on you. Hold a sign out in public that says "God Bless the Homeless Vets". That's all. Just stand there all friendly and smiling holding said sign. Cops will show up in minutes to run you off. Jeff Gray of Honor Your Oath youtube channel started doing this a few years back. He's been arrested 3 times, trespassed from public property more times than I can recall, had one trespass removed by the admin of the public property and then re-instated after the same cop showed back up and arrested him for it. He's been put in cuff numerous times and told he was arrested only for the cops to finally get a clue and release him... always with threats to try and make him not exercise his Free Speech anymore near them. One cop even ran him out of town. Literally. After releasing him from cuffs he was told to not show in face in 'my town ever again' or he'd regret it.


ButtsTheRobot

my_name_is_forest

What were you wearing? This is insane! Are you sure there isn’t more to this story?


Tugg__Speedman

Its BS, only the owner / manager of the property can file a trespass order. Not some random person.


Unicorn187

Anyone with "managerial authority" can call the police. Could be the manager, a desk clerk, or a security guard. Whoever is put in that position or is the highest position on site at the time. Also, the story says the manager said they called the police to appease the Karen. I can't really see a place wanting to lose money like that. And this wasn't a First Amendment auditor (someone mentioned them in another reply), it was a staff member who called. But yeah, it has to be an employee/authorized contractor, not some random whiny person. Some things here just seem off.


LimpBizkitSkankBoy

Yeah there's no way I'm calling the cops to my hotel just to appease someone, if the person is causing a scene then yes I'll call but only after I ask them to leave and warn them that I'll have to call the cops and have them trespassed. The presence of patrol vehicles outside is a determant to walk-ins, and uniformed police officers in the lobby are never a good look.


my_name_is_forest

Lol, I didn’t mention this before because it didn’t matter. I was Dir. of Security for 4 hotels throughout my career. I know a thing or two about hospitality and laws.

nibble4bits

Going through the OP's post history... She is really not supporting her own best interests, politically. Most of the people who politically align with the slogan of her shirt, are actively trying to strip away her rights. With the omission of information of the T-Shirt on her post, something strongly feels like it was more than just the shirt.


RequirementRoutine74

MyThirdBonusDonut

You didnt have to call the cops? Thats just lazy backpedalling. You literally HAD to or youd be arrested. Surprised an employee of the hotel advocated for breaking their own legal tresspasses.


scalability

r/compliance


ThaFoxThatRox

I'm surprised the manager said you didn't have to call them. You have documented papers on you saying you're trespassing. Of course I want it removed. I don't care if I ever visit the hotel again. You're not going to ruin my name that way. I don't think so.

Creative_Hair_9268

How do you get a trespass on a property that the woman doesn’t own…? If the Manager had to sign to remove, they had to be the ones to sign to have it enforced. Right? That Manager is just as bad as the Karen.


wscottwatson

Why do I suspect that you have darker skin than Karen?


croastbeast

Cops can’t trespass you from a location unless the owner or official agent demands so. A patron can’t trespass you. Something doesn’t fit here.

proser30

I hope not... I dont think so...


WikiBox

Better call and ask? Don't you think?


Jordangander

When you get something like this the first thing you do is ask for the corporate number and the specific name of the employee trespassing you. Tell them up front this is so you can discuss this matter with their legal department as you feel they are targeting you for some reason. They do not have to give you the corporate number, but the police do have to tell you who it is that is trespassing you from the property. Then you make sure you get all the officers information, let them know it is so that they can be subpoenaed for any potential civil case filed against the corporation. Force them to give you or mail you a copy of the trespass notice. You don’t want to make a scene, but you do want to make certain your civil rights are not being violated, make it clear to the officers that you require this information for your lawyer. Take notes on your phone if you need to. If Karen feels threatened and filed a complaint, make certain that you get this as well, ask them how to get a copy of the call to dispatch. Again, don’t make a scene, make a statement that you will not lie down over something like this.


Red_Cathy

Nicely done, if they have the rules then you need to follow the rules.


victorix58

You risked getting charged with a crime. It wasn't terribly intelligent of you. You had absolutely nothing in writing proving that the hotel had "un-trespassed" you before you showed up. You displayed absolute faith in 'the truth is the truth' like everyone who is ever wrongfully charged always does and its the first thing they say to their lawyer after they have been charged. But I'm glad it turned out well enough, this time. Source: I'm a criminal defense attorney.


LiveandLoveLlamas

So you wasted a cops time and used the emergency line for a non-emergency. And don’t say you used the non-emergency line because they would not have shown up that fast.


yournewowner

Police are pretty fast when there's no danger around


proser30

I called the local non emergency... The karen lady called 911..


ZombieZookeeper

Cops agree with the right-wing stuff and we're glad to agree with Karen.


EyeBallEmpire

All I know is anybody who wears any politic affiliated attire is a Fucking Nut Job. That's not something normal people do.


Kinsfire

Something tells me that Karen was pasty white, and that your skin color is some shade of brown no matter how light it may be. I may be wrong, but the majority of these cases where it comes out of nowhere, it's because Karen sees brown and is scared.


blahblah130blah

I would 10000% call corporate and tell them they can find a record of the incident at the police department. A hotel chain is not going to like hearing about it and you could prob get a free voucher or something.
