She further claimed that even after everything, none of the employees at the Berlin store bothered to apologise or give an explanation.
Zarna Garg, an Indian-American comedian, took to Instagram alleging that she was stuck in a Hermès restroom in Germany for over an hour while the staff adamantly refused to break the “flimsy” door to rescue her.
She alleged, “No apology, no explanation, not a word of comfort was offered. Not even to my kids or team who were watching in horror on the other side. I was locked in behind a door that was a cheap, flimsy piece of plywood in violation of the fire code. However, as time passed, things started getting serious. Garg explained, “As time went on, we got concerned that they were making no headway and demanded the managers call the Fire Department. The store was adamant that the door needed to be protected! It became clear that we were in a hostile territory. It took over an hour for Garg to be rescued, and that too only after the fire department intervened. On the way out, an associate pushes a cheap bottle of champagne into my hands. A peace offering? We declined and they closed the door behind us and locked it shut. Recalling the tense aftermath of the incident, Garg pointed out how the luxury brand’s staff immediately went tight-lipped. “I’m a lawyer, I understand it. Their legal team probably advised them not to say a word. Garg also shared a video showing her stuck in a bathroom. Her team and daughter standing outside ask a man and then a woman to break down the door, but they refuse. The comedian ultimately gets out after the fire department uses specialised tools to pry the door open.
“After an hour and 20 minutes, I make it out.
No one says a word, apologizes, or makes eye contact with me.
