Karen refuses to move her stroller from Emergency Road and threatens to fire me.

So my boss makes her look stupid. Here's what happened.

So first, backstory.

I work for a company that does larp-based events, birthday parties mostly, but also quite

a few company trips and other general weird events.

And every year we attend several medieval fairs as they provide excellent advertisement

for the company and are a lot of fun for us crew.

So my job at this medieval fair was to coordinate our archery with foam arrows and hammer and

rock throwing, which was located right beside one of the three taverns on the market.

Now there being a tavern meant there also had to be several emergency roads,

one of which leads right between my area and that of another activity of ours.

So to the story. I was standing there teaching some kids

how to use a bow and arrow, all well and good, with the emergency road being fairly

packed. But that's no biggie since should there be an emergency the people can get

moved really quite quickly. We're just not allowed to block it with anything.

As the kid finishes his turn having an absolute blast shooting arrows, I look over and notice someone from the tavern tent

come walking towards me. Quite naturally, I walk towards him and apologize to the next in line

that they'll have to wait a moment. The guy looks displeased to say the least, and I immediately get ready for an earful, but fortunately it wasn't my fault. He had just spoken with the safety team and the fire road was too blocked, so I turned to look and I see the problem.

The road was fairly busy, but in the middle of it all, I see a woman sitting in a camping chair with a baby stroller next to her.

And based on her haircut, facial expression, and style of clothing, I began to see a massive sign above her head

with the name Karen written on it, because Lord Almighty she looked like one.
