‘My boss stole my bag and threw it away’: Boss tosses employee’s bag in the dumpster after office hours, HR intervenes and sides with boss

You don't have to enjoy the fashion of your fellow coworkers, but that doesn't mean you should say anything out loud about it. Keep your thoughts about how unflattering your employee's jacket is to yourself! Sure, you might secretly wish that you could make that jacket disappear into thin air while no one is looking. Still, making that fantasy a reality is not exactly an ethically sound move.

In this instance, we have an employee who was given a bag with the company's logo on it when they first were hired there. Eventually, the logo changed, but the employee kept bringing the bag to work. Seems pretty harmless. It's not like anyone said anything negative about it… that is, until the employee's boss decided she had a problem with it. However, instead of simply asking that she stop using the bag or gifting her a new one with the correct logo on it, the boss simply waited until after office hours and then proceeded to throw the bag into the dumpster. And yes, there was video footage that she did this!
