Gents, I have taken a notion to carry the dreaded EDC bag to work. This is a trial for me. I am typically one who does NOT like lugging a bag around unless it is full of electrical maintenance tools.
I am a minimalist most times. Hip pocket wallet, folding knife with clip in other back pocket, small keyring on cloth fob on tbe belt tucked into front pocket. Mobile in other front pocket and not much else.
So the ruddy purse comes to mind. I will tell you straight away it needs to be a durable fabric. Someting I would not be afraid to put through the dishwasher if needs be. No fine leather needed. I carry a Veto Pro Pac MCT tool bag and it has D rings on it I could clip the bag to if I need to carry it wiith me right to the work. I work in some dirty areas at times and so the need to be able to clean it.
Okay, inventory dictates need as to size and shape. I would consider a 7 inch tablet, pocket novel for break times, one or two very small snack items, typical pens and pencils, note pad, and not a whole lot more. Possibly a small pen light.
My mind runs to a small horizontal style but a messenger that is narrow and taller up and down would work if you convince me. Needs a shoulder strap but if you look at some tool pouches they have a carry handle as well as the strap and it would be nice to have both. Particularly if they have quick clips. Then I could remove strap and atrach it to the Veto D rings with carabiners. Doesn't need to pretty or bulletproof.
