Views on Briefcases - Meeting

[Tachyon]

If you cut the lead off a sandwich maker or George Foreman grill you'd have a briefcase of sorts. Maybe that would work.

If I were a chef I'd be taking my knives to work in a briefcase.

 

[King Damager]

Yeah a briefcase should do it and then a time machine to get back from 1985.

So what does one use now....

I thought it was a briefcase ****?

 

[anything I don't mind]

Depends on what the meeting is about, if you need to take notes, taking a laptop can look more organized.

Is it OTT to arrive with a briefcase with all my work etc in it

Just re-read this. What does the above mean? What 'work'? As much as I hate to admit it, groen might be correct if you're talking about things best discussed on a laptop. If you're talking about papers then the briefcase is fine.

You still haven't said what an executive head chef is or does.

Taken from wiki executive chef

This person is in charge of all things related to the kitchen which usually includes menu creation; management of kitchen staff; ordering and purchasing of inventory; and plating design.

Anything BUT cooking? Okay.

A briefcase seems made for this situation, or is that what you take on hoilday, nope, thats a suitcase.

A briefcase? Sure why not. Is it a very formal meeting?

Personally, don't see a problem with a very smart messenger bag and a neat, organised folder with the paper work inside.

 

[memyselfandi]

Put all of the paperwork in a saucepan

Why does it have to be a briefcase... what about some kind of file?
