    Videos on youtube about what people generally carry in their pockets?

    Jesus! :pac:
    So what do you walk around with all day?

    Work phone, personal phone, keys and my wallet.

    The odd time alright I'll have my backpack with the laptop in it, but with the phone it's like a damn technological swiss army knife- I pretty much have my whole agenda for the week ahead organised on it, then I can e-mail on the go, store presentations, documents, browse some tech sites and forums, boards etc.

    I prefer to travel as light as possible. Couple of weeks ago I was waiting for a bus at George's quay, six o clock in the morning and I got mugged by some young lads who got away with my phone.

    They missed the laptop in my backpack and my other phone with which I was able to call the Gardaí, they arrived ten minutes later but sure the lads were long gone at that stage.

    The less you carry, the less you make yourself an opportunity for enterprising little fcukers like these to relieve you of your possessions.


    EDIT: I forgot smokes, nice one Duggy! :D

    Rolling tobacco, skins, filters.
    Lighter, which is usually lost 10 minutes after leaving the apartment.

    Then in my bag I'd have a few pens and a refill pad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,657 ✭✭✭somefeen


    So there are youtube videos about what people have in their pockets?
    I didn't think it was possible to have anything worse than unboxing videos, but once again the internet surprises me.

    It's actually not as mad as you might think, and probably the reason why when I was mugged they missed the laptop in my backpack. You can get backpacks now that have a specially designed compartment for carrying a laptop and keeping it cushioned from the rest of your stuff.

    Carrying a laptop, in a laptop bag/briefcase- everybody knows what you're carrying, and they're much easier to grab too than trying to get a backpack off your back!

    Tiny purse with credit card, bank card, and cash.
    Keys.

    You should tape the spoon to the syringe so then you only carry two things.

    Sort of like a 'Spork'. A 'Spyroon' if you will.

    If working behind a bar, bottle opener/corkscrew gizmo and a pen. Anybody who borrows one of these and doesn't give it back is fair game to be poked in the eye with the other one.

    In my handbag:

    Reader - do not leave the house without it
    Vaper - used to be cigs & lighter
    Crappy phone - deliberately so
    Folder-over purse - with coins, cards etc etc.

    Migraleve & motilium - very prone to migraines, so usually always have them on me
    Keys.

    That's it. I always like having it empty leaving house, you should see it some days when I get back - I can fit some amount of stuff in it whilst doing business/shopping down town.

    I'd like to suggest not carrying it around with you anymore and leaving it somewhere safe.


    I carry my phone and keys. Everything else stays in the car, I don't really use a wallet so the money just goes loose in my pocket, I can't stand having clutter in the pockets..
