Many similar comments flooded in: “Why do rich people enjoy cosplaying the broke,” and “She’s making fun of real people’s jobs who make low income… bravo!”

“She’s not even really working. It’s a PR photo shoot, hence the camera flash with the pose. She will never know how working a real 9-5 job like this is. Pathetic of her honestly,” another added.
