Packing a Workspace

December 08, 2016

This is my sixth and final post for the 6 week Support Driven writing challenge. For this post, the topic is “Share your workspace with us.”

I’m a remote worker, because of that, my physical workspace is in flux. Most days are spent either at home or a local coworking spot. Because of that, I wanted to capture what I keep in what I call my desk, my backpack.

I do have one rule for where I work: The space must be quiet and private. No open office and little time spent in coffee shops.

Here’s what’s pictured above:

• Standard issue MacBook Pro and charger.
• Ear buds.
• A notebook to write down thoughts.
• Blue/Black Pen. Like a TV remote, I’m always losing one of these. Currently lost is the blue pen.
• USB cable.
• Clicky keyboard & mouse. Not always on me but a must have.
• Water bottle.
• The book I’m currently reading, Getting Things Done.
• A local magazine, Little Village.
• The desk, a Crumpler Backpack.

Unpictured:

• Snacks/lunch.
• Coffee mug.
• Sweatshirt, mittens, and hat. (it’s getting cold)
