I'm a judgemental prick, but I don't think I've ever really cared what someone is bringing to the office. For the last 2 years, I'm also in the spot of being the client far more than being the vendor, so I rarely get super dressed up or anything else.

Yes. I carry a knife also. Keep the bag in the truck and the boat.

But I do take my trapper keeper. It’s pretty sweet. Added a pencil pouch last week.

No. I don’t go to an office anymore. But I do have a bag with a handgun, bullets, knife, spoon, Gerber pliers, LED headlight, toothbrush, toothpaste, BeanieWeenies, sardines, emergency cash, etc. You never know….
same. You are not alone.

It might stay in vehicle, but that bag goes everywhere with me.

Guilty. I keep my wallet and keys in there, along with a pistol, a Leatherman, grooming kit, compass, flint, pens, thumbdrives, microfiber cloths, eyeglass case, gum, Bluetooth headphones; etc.

I’ve only been to my office 3 times this year. All 3 times I was not in possession of a backpack.

Yes.

I have to often get up and get on a plane in short notice. Sometimes immediately. So I switched to a backpack go bag situation. I don’t like it but it works and is more practical than a briefcase for me.

No, I don't.

I generally use a backpack for personal travel, but I have a strong aversion to it for business. That's just me though, I don't give much thought to it if others do -- arguably it is much more comfortable for carrying heavy documents / electronics / etc.

Same.

And messenger bags are a terrible design. Totally inferior to a backpack. They carry less, aren’t as stable on the body due to how they hang, and overall just make you look like a metrosexual soi boi.

I use one of these but it’s my work backpack. I tour a lot of buildings and use laser tape measures and tape measures. I also need my laptop and sales slicks so it works better than my briefcase.


Sounds like my work day.
