I work for a multi billion multi national medical technology company at their office in central london. On day one after i got the job they gave me a brand spanking new top of the line macbook pro worth over £3k. I asked them for a bag for it and the IT guy who gave it to me looked like i slapped him in the face.

"Am i supposed to walk around central london with 3k of macbook in a plastic shopping bag?"

He produced some weird fabric envelope thing from a cupboard.

Luckily i'm sad enough to turn up to work with my own laptop in my own bag so i did have a bag but he had no way of knowing that
