Whats in your Pocket

Published

I just wanted to post a thread and see if anyone else goes home with pocket full of interesting things. This comes to me, because last night after a long day I come home and started taking things out of my pocket as my husband is laughing at me saying can you fit anything else in there. I pulled out electrodes, alcohol pads, 2x2's, gloves, post-it note pad, black pen, red pen, highlighter, pencile, roll of tape, and saline fulshes. No wonder I feel like 10lbs more when I am at work.

I always have a pocket of stuff too. half the time I don't even know what I have in my pocket, until I get ready to go home. the worst was finding at least 8 pens in my pocket, when I had trouble all shift finding a pen. too many things in my pocket lead to not finding what I need. it's a bad habit that I can not break.
