Ex-worker returns laptop in Gucci bag so boss doesn't think she's 'screwed without the job'

A company's former employee has gone viral on TikTok after returning a work laptop in a paper Gucci bag to insinuate that she isn’t “screwed without the job” after being made redundant.

After being let go, the ex-employee known as @champagneanddividends on the social media site posted a video of her putting the company Macbook in the designer shopping bag with the caption: “Sending my work laptop back in a Gucci bag after being made redundant so they don’t know I’m screwed without the job...stay classy friends.”

The viral ‘TikToker’ explained the designer shopping bag wasn’t from something she had purchased and had come from a prize her partner had won.
