I’m working away in the local coffee bar and see something that I’ve been seeing more and more of lately and it puzzles me. A couple of people was working away at the tables and got up to leave to resume their work day. They each picked up their notebook with the papers they were carrying and headed out the door. Both of them were carrying their notebook naked, no case, sleeve, nothing. I am seeing this done more frequently the past couple of weeks than I have ever seen and I’m wondering why anyone would carry a notebook, especially a full-size one, around unprotective? It’s not safe, it’s not comfortable and if it happened to start raining while they were in the coffee shop they’d be toast. Am I missing something?
