‘You’re not my customer right now, because I’m not serving you’: McDonald’s employee calls police on ‘Karen’

In a viral TikTok video, a McDonald's employee refuses to serve a "male Karen" due to his disrespectful behavior, before calling the police on him.

The video features user Sunnie (@sunnieallison) who records her co-worker trying to talk to a screaming man at the drive-thru window.

"Why aren’t you serving me?” the man shouts. The employee replies, “Because you’re being disrespectful.”

The man then claims that he's right because he's the customer. "Just because you’re a customer, doesn’t mean you’re always right,” she claps back. She then clarifies that he isn't her customer, because she refuses to serve him.

"My loyalty is to my other customers who are being respectful to me," she adds.

The man demands that she takes his money as she begins dialing the police.

“The police are on their way. I’m getting your license plate, too,” she says, while the man begins driving away. She then closes the drive-thru window.
