Phoebe Kennedy, a local employee at a retail chain in Betoota Ponds took a gamble a little while ago.
Tired from finishing an assignment late last night before her 8am start at the Hillers the part time employee had had just about enough.
That was before Tracey Phillips, a 48-year-old suburban mother of 3 came in.
After going back and forth with the Karen for some time about returning a product that was visibly used, young Phoebe decided she’d had enough.
So she decided to use the word ‘hun.’
‘Hun’ widely regarded as the sister term to the word ‘champ,’ is a way of politely insulting someone in an extremely condescending fashion.
Kennedy spoke to us today about her decision to go there.
“Well as they always say. It’s a champ eat champ world. Champ or be champed. Same thing goes for hun.”
She was one more interruption from a child away from ‘hunning’ me, so I went there first” Kennedy said.
“I’d just had enough of her passive aggression and decided it was time to drop the hammer.”
Kennedy said that despite her manager being called over to sort the incident out, the gamble paid off in the end.
“Yeah, jokes on her. The h-bomb wound her up enough that she she was short with my manager, who automatically sided with me,” she said.
“My manager can see a Karen coming from a mile away anyway.”
“Anyway I’m going home now.”
