I share the common sentiment of disliking corporate coffee shops, but this individual seems to have misunderstood the courtesy aspect. It's actually Starbucks that's providing the courtesy, not this self-centered douchebag.
If there's no indication that it's closed, and no way out of the drive through after being told they're closed other than continuing, IMO it's totally reasonable to be upset.
Spoken like a entitled Karen.
It's not like businesses have their hours posted everywhere, I'm sure that this day and age is in their website too, and I'm sure all that info is also on Google maps or any other search engine/review site out there.
It's like there's plenty of information out there to plan things ahead of time and the lack of planning on the Karen's place isn't the small businesses problem and no it's not reasonable to be upset at the business with a scheduled closing time over your own lack of planning and leaving a Karen-esque review demanding service after the business is closed for the evening.
If they're still serving customers, and there's no indication that they're closed, that's BS. Places stay open later than their posted hours all the time.
Okay Karen.
