Summary
In today’s r/EntitledPeople story, a web designer at OP’s bakery decides that because he’s “creative”, he must automatically be better at cake decorating than OP - a ten-year professional cake artist. His arrogance goes from annoying to unbelievable when he starts correcting OP’s techniques, criticizing her designs and even claiming he could “easily” do her job. OP finally lets him try…and the results are a disaster. Now she’s wondering how someone with zero experience can have this much confidence.
