There are two kinds of people in this world: those who wrap and Velcro their AC cords, and those who constantly have to untangle a handful of wires. Which one are you?

My father told me when I was young to always wrap it up. Different context but the advice still holds

I think there are more than just the two kinds, for example the once who do not like to carry their cords. Keep one at home and the other at work place.

I like to keep it nice and wrapped up. The one I leave at home is not wrapped up though, but it's stuffed behind the desk with the other mess of wires

M1 with the plot twist! Love.

I'm the same as E1 but that totally fits my life - great at setting up plans and organization but horrible at following it through.

Same as M2. I have 3. One at client's, one at home, and one at the hotel which I leave behind with my toiletries.

And some would argue that it really should be called CDO...

My ethnicity makes me a minority but I would never join a minority affinity/business resource group. I think it creates separation which can lead to an “us versus them” mentality - a step backwards.

I’d like to hear some thoughts from people who disagree and if they are in these groups or not
