Travel Coffee Mugs
Do you appreciate a good cup of coffee in the morning? Maybe while on the way to work? Or while on a job site? Like a quality tool, a quality travel coffee mug is a necessity. The following are three web site resources to help you to choose a decent coffee mug.
Good Housekeeping – The authors have put together a twenty-seven slide show demonstrating the pros and cons of various mugs.
Brugo – This manufacturer engineers a coffee mug to deliver the perfect temperature for a sip of coffee. The mugs are pretty cool looking too.
Buzz Mug – All things coffee and tea. Passion meets coffee meets coffee mugs. Neat.
Carry a Digital Camera
You should carry a digital camera with you wherever you go.
In your truck
- To help remember what a job site looks like
- To take pictures of an accident
- Take pictures and identify all of your tools
- To show your manager how clean your truck is
Job site
- To take pictures of memorable work
- To help remember where equipment, material or tools are on a job site
- To facilitate learning something
- To help explain a situation to a manager
- To show your customer something when access is limited
- To help explain something to your salesman
- To help coworkers identify systems or components
- To help in teaching coworkers
- To show your spouse and or family what you do
In addition to taking pictures of job site and truck related items, take pictures of items that capture your attention throughout the day. You sharpen your sense of awareness when you are on the lookout for things to take pictures of. After a little practice, this tendency will come natural and you’ll hardly even think about it.
Are there any other reasons that you can think of to carry a digital camera with you throughout the day?
The Ryobi Tek4 4V 8MP Digital Camera is a beastly work-site camera that I’ve seen at Home Depot.
