I'm an ex-IT professional-turned-social-worker looking to fix people rather than machines.
It has been hard to completely escape the IT geek in me because I still carry quite a bit of tech -- much more than I really need to, but I remember from my tour of duty as a Cub Scout many years ago, "Be Prepared.... for someone to forget a cable, or something."
The "heavy duty" field bag has HDMI, VGA, DVI, ethernet, and a few other cables packed. Also not shown is a Microsoft Universal Foldable Keyboard that slips in the Cocoon Grid It in a back zipper compartment. I've saved the day a few times having some of this gear (ex: while at a medical conference last year, a doctor wasn't provided the right tech for a presentation they were asked to give. Guess who randomly had it on them? This guy).
When I just need a few things in the field, I use the L.L. Bean messenger bag to carry a clipboard with some paper records and the Asus Chromebook Flip C302 (which I'm a huge fan of) for my client assessments.
It's taken me a few years to build this EDC and it's one I feel pretty happy with on a regular basis.
