I have two work laptops (one for the firm, one for the client) and two different laptop chargers. Does anyone have any work bag suggestions? Most tote bags will fit one laptop comfortably, but not two. Thanks in advance for recommendations!

I upgraded to a backpack and it was the best decision... I have a Tumi and it has tons of space, fully zips, and then doesn’t hurt my back when it’s totally packed full.

I agree completely! I’ve had a Tumi for years and it’s worth the investment!

Agree Tumi is the best! No back pains and much easier to carry other things such as Coffee without risking to spill it 😂

Haha this is seriously so important. Nothing like your tote bag slipping down on your coffee arm and ruining your life.

Love my Knomo Beaufort backpack and have received tons of compliments back when we were in the office. I've used it with my laptop and portable external monitor, I assume two laptops would fit in the bag similarly

I use this Calpak backpack, it’s faux leather and professional looking. It has a separate laptop pocket in the back but the main compartment also has a pocket that fits my work computer too. I frequently carry my work laptop and 15” MacBook in it! https://www.calpaktravel.com/products/kaya-laptop-backpack/gunmetal-black?variant=23682872148026&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic&utm_term=&utm_campaign=AV_GoalOptimized+Shopping_Kaya&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_acc=1275500925&hsa_cam=12991143087&hsa_grp=121344664745&hsa_ad=519620606805&hsa_src=u&hsa_tgt=pla-1253550482531&hsa_kw=&hsa_mt=&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gclid=CjwKCAjwy42FBhB2EiwAJY0yQotk3BoDjzLs_r_qGb-FfnTo6ow1pHsK4690ktNCUWnqprGpY2gJKBoC2YYQAvD_BwE

My firm has a collections budget (80% of your billable rate x 1850 hours) and an hourly budget that must be met in order to be eligible for a bonus. The firm cares very little about originations and will reward someone for making their collections over someone who brings in new work. I missed my collection budget due to some odd timing with a client, but originated more than all my peers so no bonus for me. I’ve been at this same mid level firm for 9 years and it’s all I know.
