What's in your everyday carry bag?
 - 
Nothing. Don't even have a carry bag.
 - 
Laptop. Couple cables. Pens.
 - 
Laptop, USB3 HDD, USB flash drive, USB to SATA, power cord, notebooks (very few notes actually taken, don't know why I keep them), and a USB3 to network adapter, phone charger, USB to Type-C cord. That's the normal stuff anyway.
Yes, we do a lot of bench work.

@aaronstuder Couple pens, Notebook, Laptop, USB 3.0 Flash Drives, Two Ethernet Cables and multipurpose tools.

My lunch, ibuprofen, and my dumbphone

One of the best ways to identify a veteran fisherman vs an inexperienced one is by the size of his tackle box. Less is more. The better fisherman I become the less lures I carry. It's the opposite of what most people think..
What do you need other than a laptop to make connector whatever you need to access?
 - 
Probably different for desktop tech who needs tools, but if you don't handle that kind of stuff, really a laptop is all you need

Often don't even need that. I bring one, typically, but not always.

For me, I'm only ever onsight if I'm there for meetings. Don't need a laptop distracting me if I'm talking to customers.
