A young woman took to Reddit recently to ask for opinions after her coworker’s daughter rifled through her purse and got a big surprise. What the girl discovered shook up the entire workplace! Here is the full story.
They Have Rules
OP is a woman in her very early 20s. Her workplace requires employees to leave their personal items in a locker area before heading back to the main work area. This includes purses and handbags.
She Had Big Plans
One day, OP had plans to go out immediately after work. Those plans involved a small adult toy, which she carried in her purse that day.
She Took Extra Precautions
But OP took extra precautions to make sure that her toy remained a secret. It was inside its own velvet pouch, which she then put inside an inside pocket of her purse, which was full of other items.
Finally, she zipped the purse closed and stored it high up on the bank of lockers.
They Called Her Out
Later that same day, OP got called to the front desk. It seemed an administrative coworker wanted to return something that belonged to OP.
Her Secret Was Out
When OP got to the front desk, she could see that her coworker was angry. She said that her young daughter had gone through OP’s purse and found her special “lipstick.”
A Turn of Events
OP was shocked to hear that her coworker’s daughter had rifled through her purse, and she half expected an apology to follow. But what happened was something much different.
It Was an Exciting Discovery
The coworker told OP that her daughter had brought the lipstick to her, excited because she liked the color of the case. She wanted her mother to buy her something similar.
She Was Shocked
But when OP’s coworker opened up the container, she saw that there was no color to the “lipstick” at all. There was also a charging port.
They Were at Odds
The coworker was furious that OP brought her adult toy to work where the little girl could find it.
OP was shocked that the other woman was attacking her when it was her daughter who had been going through OP’s personal belongings.
She Had to Work Hard
OP pointed out how well hidden her toy had been and that the little girl had to get really nosy and invasive to find it in the first place. She would have even had to stand on a stool or chair to reach the purse in the first place.
Adding Insult to Injury
OP felt violated in addition to being attacked.
They Couldn’t Agree
The two women stood there and argued for a while until OP ended it by saying she was sorry the little girl found her toy. But she also told her coworker to keep her daughter out of OP’s personal item.
They Tried to Make It Right
After the incident, OP’s bosses installed locks in the employee area, and they offered to pay for a replacement toy, since it had been handled by multiple people.
They Reviewed the Security Footage
The company also reviewed the security footage and verified that the little girl had taken OP’s purse to her mother. The girl rifled through several other purses, too.
They Let Her Stay
OP’s coworker was formally reprimanded, but not fired. She needed the income, and her company didn’t want to wreck her family.
Now, after she’s cooled down a bit, OP wonders if she was wrong for bringing her toy to work in the first place.
