Well, the cool thing about the digital age is that it takes only a short time to get a badge done. And, honestly, the picture doesn’t look that bad.<\/p>\n

Now for the practical issues.<\/p>\n

The badge is different from the cardkey to the building and fire stairs entrances. So both need to be carried together. I normally keep my cardkey in my wallet, since it means it’s always with me. In theory, the ID badge should always be with me, too, but in practice arriving at work without my cardkey had a lot more impact (at 6 a.m.) than arriving at work without my ID badge.<\/p>\n

How, then, to ensure that I never come to the office without it, in as foolproof and braindead a fashion as possible? Because I know I will run into problems with this, sooner or later, unless I make it that simple.<\/p>\n

Current thinking — ID card (on a belt clip) and cardkey stay together. They get clipped to my briefcase when not in the office. That keeps it from being automobile-specific (since I know that will fall apart as soon as I need to take Margie’s car), but it does add the element of risk to having to remember to do it (or, if I get home and am changing clothes and realize I didn’t transfer it over, having an equally foolproof plan for making sure it gets brought to work the next day).<\/p>\n

We’ll see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
