Company fired me. I’m not really upset because they were assholes and the new manager that came in made it pretty clear he wanted me out day 1.
They’ve sent a email asking for the company property back which is a monitor and laptop.
They said they’ll send a label but i should have saved the original boxes and if I didn’t I need to go buy boxes and padding.
My question is, what happens if I A) Refuse to send it back? And/or B) refuse unless they pay for the box?
They’ve already sent my final check so they can’t threaten that. I don’t really care about the laptop (it’s so bad I never used it) and the monitor is fairly cheap ($97) but frankly I also mounted the monitor and I’ve moved since I started at the company so I have no earthly idea where the stand went and there was no way I was keeping random boxes around in my 600sqf apartment for them.
And call me petty but I don’t want to be going out of my way, wasting my time to go buy them a box and send it out. To me I feel like if they want it they can provide a box and someone to come get it themselves because I’m not spending my time, money, and gas on doing anything for them.
