Tote Bags Gifts for Interns
For carrying your lunch, laptop, and will to live to work every day. Welcome to the machine, kid.
Why This Works
Your commute bag is a daily statement piece whether you like it or not. Instead of a boring black laptop bag or a free tote from a conference, why not carry something that makes people on the train do a double-take? These bags hold everything you need while broadcasting exactly how you feel about Monday mornings.
Interns are precious, fragile creatures experiencing corporate life for the first time. They still believe in inbox zero, show up early to meetings, and ask questions with genuine enthusiasm that will absolutely be crushed by Q4. Giving a gift to an intern is part appreciation, part hazing ritual, part 'here's what you're in for.' It's a welcome to the professional world that acknowledges both the excitement they feel and the soul-crushing reality they're about to discover. Be nice to them—they'll be your boss someday if they don't burn out first.

Frequently Asked Questions
- How big are the tote bags?
- 15" x 16" with a 4" gusset - fits a laptop, lunch, and the emotional weight of your responsibilities. Handles have an 11" drop for easy shoulder carrying.
- What material are they?
- Heavy-duty 12oz canvas. These aren't flimsy grocery store bags - they're built to carry your stuff through whatever your commute throws at you.
- Can I wash them?
- Yes. Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. They're designed to handle real life, which means coffee spills and mystery stains from public transit.
- Will the print crack or peel?
- Nope. We use screen printing that's embedded in the fabric, not sitting on top. It'll last longer than most of your coworkers.
