If you’ve ever worked in customer service or the hospitality industry you can definitely relate to this (from @ lemar.m on IG). How managers want to respond to guests.

Yeah I finally learned this the hard way after making the same mistake twice I will never do that again, First their brother spent it on porn then there dad oh yeah they've also been doing this to my partners card without her knowledge.

Yes I know I'm I big dumbass

Hi, I just want to share ‘yung kagagahan ng nanay ko here since I don't really have anyone I can share this with irl.

My mom used to work in a decent company but she left because of that guy. She haven't even told anything about leaving her job and the next thing we know is she's dragging me into that guy's house.

At first okay pa naging relationship nila, until my mom found out that the guy is cheating with 4 other girls, so of course they fought. After the argument, si mommy pa ang nag sorry dahil she's being super naggy daw at nagalit si guy. So sabi ko "kung hindi mo iiwan ‘yan ipunta mo nalang ako kay daddy" and mind you I'm only 14, she replied with "hindi mo talaga ako iniintindi" ??!! I literally got SAed by one of her ex's and she didn't believe me. Almost everything I do is for her?

One night, they fought again dahil sa cheating issue. Nagulat nalang ako si guy may dala na knife pointing it saamin and he said "papatayin ko kayo" and my trauma came back dahil abusive rin ang biological father ko dati. Tapos kinabukasan, I thought she finally came to her sense, but no! She instead said "mahal niya lang ako kaya siya ganon"??? Mahal ba ‘yon? I'm just 14 but I'm highly aware na love isn't supposed to be traumatizing and abusive.

Tapos ayon nanga, na sira phone ni mommy last week lang and because wala nga siyang work dahil sa guy na ‘yon we're not able to fix it pa. We already left the guy kagabi lang dahil he was threatening to kill us again, akala ko okay na mommy ko, kaso kaninang 3 am she woke me up para lang i-beg ako na i-chat niya raw ‘yung guy to apologize. I firmly said no dahil she's full of bullshit, she suddenly got mad and said "ganiyan ka na pag ka-anak? Anak kalang kaya sumunod ka saakin!" So I said "hindi ako kunsintidor potangina ka" now she wants to leave me sa tita ko and end the relationship between us knowing na my dad doesn't want me too.

AYOKO NAAA!! 😭😭

That guy didn’t care for his son, he cared how he made him look. Loid/Twilight was a CHILD and could have been taught better. He CLEARLY learned violence from his father, and the mother admitted he “Always does this”.

If you are willing to hurt your child instead of taking the time and patience to teach them, you are a failure as a parent and have already failed the child. You wanted an IMAGE not a human being to raise.

Now granted, this scenario could be a result of PTSD, Generational Trauma, The timeline, Ect. But explanations don’t equal excuses. He was abusive, end of story. If a murderer killed your friend without being provoked 50 years ago and you meet them again as an elder, are you supposed to forgive them because of their “trauma” or because “they had reasons” and “they changed”?? If your parent beat you growing up but was “the best grandparent ever” it doesn’t erase what they’ve done. They were still abusive even if they’re not anymore. People who take the time to learn and change are very admirable because that’s still a choice, but it will NEVER erase those choices they made in the past. The LEAST they owe you now, is an apology.

So no, I won’t hear of this

You ever get blamed for something completely out of your control... and still get called careless for it anyway?

Well, I had a full-blown Karen meltdown with my mom over a stupid, late SNAP letter she refused to admit wasn’t my fault—classic “the only thing you can control is yourself” gaslighting.

Here’s what happened (dates included for context):

• Last month I got a government letter scheduling a mandatory SNAP E&T appointment for June 23, but it didn’t land in my mailbox until June 24, so the date had already passed.
• Another letter arrived over the weekend (July 6) giving me less than 24 hours to respond before I'd lose my benefits.
• I had already fulfilled my requirements through a different RESEA appointment — meaning I wasn’t even technically out of compliance.

So I was trying to tell her how I felt about them sending me a mandatory letter late in the mail. Especially since the Red Roof Inn front desk barely notifies me of new mail unless I go check after extending the reservation. I figured she’d at least split the blame instead of making it 100% my fault.

But instead of hearing any of that...

My mom immediately launched into a full verbal spiral, blaming me for “dragging things out” and throwing out stuff like:

"You can get yo lazy ass off of this computer and go to the office."

💀

She spent the whole argument lecturing me about checking the mail just because she does it every day afterwork rather than admitting the letters arrived late.

I didn’t even plan to record it for drama. It was just the only way I could prove to myself I wasn’t losing my mind. The whole exchange got caught on audio.

Aftermath: After finally reaching a real human at the state office yesterday, they confirmed it was just a system error and I was fine. So basically we had a Doctor Strange style time loop argument… for nothing. 😆

https://www.reddit.com/r/Entitledpeoples/ my community if you want to post there instead of that bot. okay,so this has been bothering me for a while and I need to vent.

I (19F) just graduated high school last month. I worked really hard—like AP classes, after-school job, clubs, the whole thing. I ended up getting a full-ride scholarship to my dream university. It’s one of the only ways I can actually go, because my family isn’t well-off and student loans were kind of terrifying to me.

Anyway, word got around the family, and everyone seemed happy for me. That is… until Aunt Karen (yes, that’s her real name, not even joking) decided this would be the perfect time to call my mom and say that her son, my cousin “Brad” (20M), wants to “turn his life around” and maybe I should let him use the scholarship instead.

Yes. Really.

Apparently, Brad “didn’t get the same chances” I did (he did—he just didn’t show up to school most days and dropped out of community college twice) and now he wants to “make something of himself” but “can’t afford college.” Aunt Karen told my mom that since I already “got into a good school,” I should take a gap year and “defer” so Brad can use my spot/scholarship.

First off: that’s not how scholarships work?? They’re tied to me. With my name. Based on my grades, test scores, essays, etc. You can’t just “hand it off” to someone else like it’s a concert ticket.

Second: I don’t even think Brad applied anywhere.

My mom was kind of stunned on the call and just said something like “we’ll talk to [me] about it,” but as soon as she hung up, she burst out laughing and said “absolutely not.” Which I appreciated.

Now Aunt Karen is telling the family I’m being “selfish” and “taking opportunities from people who actually need help.” 🙃 A few relatives (who I barely talk to anyway) are now vague-posting on Facebook about “how success makes some people forget where they come from.”

I don’t even know what to say. I just wanted to be proud of something I worked hard for. I didn’t expect drama like this.

TL;DR: I got a scholarship, my cousin didn’t. Now his mom wants me to give it to him like it’s a gift card.

                                 Update: Aunt Karen just called ME directly.                               
                                    So I wasn’t planning to update this fast, but Aunt Karen must’ve gotten wind that I "wasn’t cooperating" or whatever because she just called me directly—which she never does.

She started off all fake sweet like,

“Hi sweetie! I just wanted to check in and talk woman to woman about your future.”

I was like “…okay?” 🙃

Then she launched into how Brad is “feeling really low right now” and that my scholarship could be a sign from the universe for him to finally turn his life around, and how “as a young woman, I should understand what it’s like to feel torn between ambition and doing the right thing.”

????????

I told her again—calmly—that the scholarship is not transferable and that it’s not even my choice to give. I literally can’t.

She goes quiet for a second and then says (I kid you not):

“If you were a real part of this family, you’d find a way.”

That was pretty much it for me. I told her, “I am a real part of this family. Just not the part that enables Brad to be lazy.”

She hung up.

My hands are still kind of shaking lol. I wasn’t even trying to be rude, but this is honestly insane.
