A tape measurer
A heating pad
A water resistant fire safe
Decent surge protectors for your expensive electronics (splurge on UPS’s if you can)

This is trolling or the actual issue is an PEBKAC issue.

Windows has fallen far from grace in my opinion, but it is not the incompetent smoldering trash fire you are describing. You guys are doing something wrong.

Putting new tasks down to get to them later at work when I see something I had not planned on doing. Just make a ticket and throw it in the backlog. It is amazing how those little 5 minute things can eat into the work you said you were going to be doing now.

Also, "the Scotty principle ". Basically always say something will take longer than it will.
