Recently, a Zomato employee became the target of a light-hearted prank when she stepped away from her desk, leaving her laptop unlocked.

Sharing a screenshot of the message her co-workers sent out, the X user advised, “Never leave your laptop open at work.”
The prank went viral in no time, leaving the internet in stitches. It not only left social media users cracked up with a good belly laugh, but it also served as a cautionary message for employees: ‘Always lock your devices when stepping away from your desk!’

“They used to do this at my first job too! If we left our laptops open, colleagues would prank each other like this. It was used as a strategy to ensure we locked our laptops and that client data was protected at all costs. Worked really well in shaping habits, tbh,” shared a user.
