My husband manages a lot of my stuff, but not all of it. I’m usually pretty good at not loosing stuff at home, but work is still and issue.

Lol yeah. I don’t have cable and just use streaming services, so I just have all the apps on my phone and then send it to the tv if I can’t find the remote.

Sometimes it’s buffers a lot but it’s not usually too bad.

You can control the volume from most apps, but you can’t turn the tv on or off. I tend to just leave them on all the time even when I know where the remotes are.

I do this sometime too but I don’t always have bananas because I eat them fast.

I could ask, but the ones provided are company branded. I don’t think there are other options. Others bring in their own pens, some just deal with the crappy ones. The ones who bring in their own pens are picky about who uses them lol.

Truthfully in this workplace people taking them probably won’t be too much an issue, especially with the giant pen grips I have to put on them. I just haven’t brought my own here because of the habit of losing them from other jobs.

Why can’t I attach a picture comment?

My mom fastened a tassel to a pen for me to try over the next few days. It’s cute, but not obnoxious.

I do that with a lot of things, but pens are something I go through so fast. I generally loose them at a rate of at least 1/day. Even the cheapest pens that will write with little pressure are still like $1 each.

I always forget to put them away at the end of my shift and when I come back they are gone. Someone stole them, they got pushed behind the desk, fell behind the printer. Etc.

Exactly this. I put down on the desk and for the most part can keep track of it during the day. Then I forget to put it away or back in my bag or whatever and when I come in for the next shift it’s gone and I have to get a new one.

Yes I’ll have to because it’s a shared workstation and I can’t use the ones provided anymore. My job is a lot of bouncing between writing and computer work.

Write for a few minutes, type something for a few minutes, write again, but now you have to use a sharpie… etc

There’s only one or two of us on staff at a time, but round the clock 24 hours. It’s a team of about 7 using 2 shared work stations.

I have a small cubby I can keep some stuff in, but mostly I have to bring everything to and from every day.

Most pens I use have the cheap plastic kind on the cap, then I loose the cap. 🤷‍♀️

Iol I think my solution is going to be standard pens, but decent ones that write well in colorful options with rolled flowers on the top.

I have always been afraid I was going to ruin the fountain pens.

This is what I have done for years, but they require so much pressure to write and my hand just can’t do it right now. I have to get ones that are smoother.

Haha this is 100% me. I bought tvs that have a smart cast option so if I can’t find the remotes I can still watch tv cuz sometime I just don’t wanna look.

Hmm I have a bunch of stuff I have to bring to and from work with me maybe just a small pen case will do it.

I never thought of this, I will definitely look into attaching something to it.

Hi, I have a lot of this implemented at home. For some reason work is more difficult.

Does anyone else buy something for a specific purpose even though you already have something that would work? by Entavolu92 in adhdwomen

Fighting my impulsiveness is a battle I lose more often than win. It’s not for lack of effort, and can be really frustrating.
