These days, several employees have been sharing accounts of their professional lives on social media, including the challenges they face at their workplaces. Recently, a Reddit user shared how his former employer contacted him asking for his laptop password, six months after firing him.
The user shared a screenshot of the employer's email on Reddit. In the message, his employer requested him to share the laptop password to perform a factory reset to prepare the device for a new user to use in future. He also assured the Reddit user that the information provided by him would be treated with utmost confidentiality and would only be used to reset the laptop.
''This just makes me giggle. For context: This company sought me out to interview at their company for a management position. I ended up getting the job. Lasted 30 days until they terminated the position due to a “cart before the horse” situation. Basically what happened is I called out all the illegal marketing practices happening and offered solutions to fix them. They got rid of the problem, which was “me.” Now they want my password. Lol,'' the user wrote on Reddit.
