Laptops use to weigh a bit more with hdds and form factor. Also when you have to carry paper workpapers around because your partners don't know how to use computer and want stuff faxed to them, your bag gets heavy.

Don’t be a b*tch use a briefcase

I feel like it depends on how far you have to carry it. If you drive to work and only carry it from your car into the building it doesn’t matter but if you live in a city and take public transit then backpack 100%

I bought a Kanken so I can hold it like a messenger bag / briefcase, yet also use it as a backpack if I wanted.

Backpack 🎒
But some people like larger people look so weird with a backpack

Nah bro I’ve seen some bigger people that just look weird with a backpack

Not gonna lie. I'm a big fan of the purses that RSM gives the ladies at the firm. They fit your laptop and gear really well. I'd totally rock one if it didn't make me look like a lunatic.

Backpack 100%. Your future back, hips, and shoulders will thank you. The weight should always be evenly distributed as you walk
