Kärring
Swedish term for the English word"hag" or "Karen".
Usually describes a miserable, lonley, bitter Swedish woman over the age of 45, who terrorizes young people (usually female and/or with immigrant background) at work.
They love spreading negativity, starting fake rumours, and creating drama. They have worked at the same place for years and are hard to get rid of if you're an employer.
Due to the pension age in Sweden, workers and costumers have to just endue them, even if a Kärring is showing signs of severe mental decline and is not fit to work.
