Nice try, pickpocket.

Nice try stochastic pick pocketer

A tissue.

Just in case.

Phone, left front. Wallet (including work fob) and key in right front; small flashlight and chapstick in the coin pocket; pen clipped to back right pocket.

Plus I guess not technically in my pocket, but I've been front horizontal carrying a leatherman (or sometimes a fixed blade with a pry bar clipped to it.

Didn’t we just do this yesterday?

Depends where I am and weather, here in Japan, its phone front right, wallet+earbuds front left, tissues+hand sanitizer inner jacket right, keys/train tickets back right, misc recipts back left.

I don't always carry all of this, but this is fully-loaded:

• Right pocket: phone
• Left pocket: beeswax lip balm, contact lens drops, vehicle keys
• Right side pocket: work keys, microfiber cloth
• Left side pocket: work phone, device failure "toe tags"
• Belt: work ID/access badge
• Right extra pocket: bit-driver with 8 bits
• Right rear: wallet
• Left rear: needlenose pliers
• Clipped to lapel: micro Phillips/flathead screwdriver, pen
• Shoulder: laptop bag with cables
• Right ear: Bluetooth earpiece

I'm pretty happy with this setup for most of my workday...

Ctrl + F. "Knife." Only 5 results.

I'm not angry, I'm just disappointed.

nice try fed 😛

Phone in right back pocket or inner jacket pocket. Left front pocket, snus, if I don't have a jacket left pocket for it. Right front pocket, apartment keys and lip balm. Earplugs in right jacket pocket. And if I'm going for a breakfast or lunch at a café, reading pad in inner left pocket.

My hands cos they're cold

As for pockets, I ain't saying which, but almost ways just my wallet and phone. Only things I ever really carry on me regularly. Keys usually stay with whatever I am taking with me ( laptop case, backpack, whatever ), so I'd be screwed if I lost whatever I take with me.

Front left: wireless headphones, flashlight, wallet, 6ft of Paracord.

Front right: cell phone, knife.

Back left: any small trash I've collected throughout the day.

Back right: usually empty 🤷‍♂️

I don't like sitting on things. Kept my wallet in my back right until I was 25 or 30, started hurting my back. Since switching it forward, no issues.

Left front phone. Right front knife or multitool. Coin pocket zippo. Rear right wallet, rear left key fob. On the occasion I have my keys me, they're on a short leather strap clipped to my belt loop in my right front.

Due to my job, all my jackets have a millimeter ruler and a staedler 319f marker in the front pocket, and my left inside pocket has a fountain pen with blue ink, and a pilot gtec C4 with black ink. Right Inside pocket has a hairtie, toothpicks, and a carved jade turtle figurine (skjoldpada).

Keys front right, wallet rear right, phone rear left. That's all I carry.

Front left is for anything miscellaneous I pick up during the day, if I do.

Before I retired, I also carried a pen, and a leatherman tool, but I don't need those anymore.

I like to put my pocket into my pocket and watch things get real weird.

Left front: phone

Right front: wallet and hand towel

Back belt loop: keys on caribeener

maybe a hair tie or marker pen. sometimes tools (mainly wrenches). uhh not really any specific pockets we use for stuff,,

Walkie, phone, pens, band aids, counter, whatever I found on the floor…whichever pocket has room.

Phone on left. Bundle of keys on the right. Dick typically goes right, but I try to even it out once in a while.

Left front: phone

Right front: keys, change, sometimes earplugs

Right butt: wallet

Anything else I need is in my backpack.

Left pocket: phone and if I don't have a bag then also my secrid wallet behind my phone with my screen against my leg.

Right pocket: folding knife, dog poop bags

If it's cold then my vest has my gloves and toque when I get to warm.

If it is dark then I have a light clip on my chest in some way so the light is in shining on my path.

If I'm hiking light then I probably have an extendable hiking pole with folding water bottle.

I tend to keep a fair bit of my stuff clipped to my belt loops, not quite as streamlined and elegant as cramming everything in a pocket, but much easier to tell when something is missing (and far less likely to beat up my phone).

Front left pocket: wallet, multitool (Nextool s11)

Front left belt loop: noise cancelling earbuds (Sony WF-1000XM5)

Front right pocket: phone (pixel 9 pro xl)

Front right belt loop: keys

Hip right belt loop: work badge (when applicable)

I don't have pants pockets but my purse is to the left. I made it myself so I have a perfectly sized pocket for my phone towards the front, wallet in the middle, keys further back. Random whatever else goes in the main compartment

Pocket knife as a tool and self defense, right front pocket of my jacket. A lighter, I don't smoke but in case I or someone else wants to light something on fire, inside pocket of my jacket. And phone, keys and other stuff but it varies where I store them.

Left front pocket: wallet Right front pocket: Phone, Keys and a 1 tb thumb drive

Wallet goes in my back left. Used to be my right but the way I sit that started to give me some sciatica issues no problem since I switched pockets. I also switched to a thinner wallet which probably helps as well but that came well after switching sides

Back right usually gets a bandana

Things move around between my front pockets a bit.

I usually carry a pocket knife and if it has a clip that gets clipped to the front right, no exceptions. If it doesn't have a clip it could be in either front pocket, or possibly a belt pouch.

I usually have a pen on me and if my shirt doesn't have a pocket that goes there as well.

I've been sporting a curly handlebar moustache for probably 15 years now, and if I'm wearing jeans or something else with a similar little watch/coin pocket, my tin of moustache wax goes there. Otherwise that tin goes into whichever pocket I find it's rattling the least against whatever else is in that pocket.

Phone switches back and forth between my left and right front pocket, based mostly on which hand I was last using it with. If I was just aimlessly scrolling on my phone or texting someone I probably had it in my right hand so it goes in the front right. It occasionally also ends up in a jacket or shirt pocket.

If I was using it while I was doing something else, like maybe looking at a recipe while I was cooking it was probably in my left hand so it goes in that pocket.

If I have cargo pockets it sometimes ends up in one of those. One of my pairs of hiking pants has a pocket that fits it really nicely.

Keys generally get clipped to a belt loop on my right side, the case for my earbuds gets clipped on my left. Other times they end up in a jacket pocket or usually my front right pocket.

I usually carry a small notepad with me, like with the pen it preferably goes in a shirt pocket, otherwise it usually ends up in my right front, or if I have cargo pockets one of those.

keys and wallet are in the winter jacket pocket in winter. man I need a summer coat with that many pockets that does not hold in heat at all.

Right: phone 1, phone 2, AirPods

Left: wallet, knife, car key.

I used to carry a wallet on my left front pocket, and a folding knife and a lightweight multi-tool in my right pocket. Also keys and change.

Now I carry a sling bag, and everything goes in there. Usually the only thing in my pockets now are keys and change.

Wallet, keys and phone. Front pockets.

Sorry. I count to five before leaving the house to make sure I have everything and so I included more than pockets.
