I was going to fawk up the meme thread with this but I decided it deserves its own thread. What’s in your pockets?

Me right now:

Hogue Doug Ritter (in orange so I can find it when I set it down in the yard)
Olight i5t eos with an energizer lithium in it
small bic lighter
Leatherman Skeletool CX
micro usb to usb C adapter
ranger band wallet with cash and cards.
bandana
no gun at the moment. Probably a LCP, sp101 or 642 when I leave the house.

no car keys, we leave the keys in everything.


edit: also frequently Samsung galaxy xcover pro, galaxy buds+

WTF is a covid contact tracker, and why?
 
WTF is a covid contact tracker, and why?

some little black box my employer makes us carry, they used to beep when you were within 6' of someone and then beeped some more when you were in contact with that person for 15 minutes. Now they don't beep. It's so if someone tests positive they pull up their tracker data and anyone who had more than 15 minutes of less than 6' contact with that person gets a trip to town for a couple days and a couple covid tests. The joys of mining in a liberal borough.

That blows
 
-2x Tweakers (small flathead
Ha! I didn't know other industries used that term. In Entertainment production it came from the old three gun CRT video projectors that you'd have to converge the three guns by tweeking the pots once the damn thing was in the air.

In Audio we called them Greenies.
 
Wallet, phone, streamlight protac 2a, marker, pen, vape thingy with refill cartridge, and 2 tabs of Imodium all the time. At work a box cutter, outside of work Ontario rat (2?) for a knife. Headphones are in there most of the time too.

Leatherman wave is usually on my belt, h&k usp + a spare mag whenever possible too. Keys get clipped on a belt loop and tucked in my pocket so I don’t jingle when I walk.

I frequently keep string cheese in my pocket too. Don’t judge me:flipoff2:
Maybe you wouldn’t need the Imodium if you didn’t eat all the warm pocket cheese :flipoff2:
 
In left pocket
keys to everthing on one keyring
whatever vehicle im driving that day on its own keyring

some buffalo hide leather wallet

right pocket in Blackhawk pocket holster
when I cant carry a gun i carry a S&W Shield 9

right side in Don Hume leather holster
when I can carry a gun I carry a S&W fullsize SS 1911

Crossbreed Holsters gun belt

used to have a Coors belt buckle till I crawled through a rock hole at Clayton and lost it but then found it there months later.

Now I have a Farmers Coop Equity 1992 Harvest edition buckle with a 1928 John Deere D on it.

I used to always have a pen and stylus in my shirt pocket but my work decided they did need uniforms any more so they gave us T shirts instead without pockets so I just leave my pen in the truck or it will fall out of my pocket and carry the stylus on days Im hauling fuel in some random pocket.
