I'm known around the hospital where I work as the "ever-prepared guy with the toolbelt" because of the fannypack full of syringes/saline/gloves and what-not I carry when I'm working.

People come to me to open their cans of chili for lunch because they know I carry a Leatherman at all times.

It can become a pain at times (had a female coworker come to me looking for tampons once) but slowly they are learning. I'm finding some folks learning it's ok to be " a little weird" and prepare for stuff. Some of my coworkers are actually carrying little LED flashlights on their keychains and extra set of scrubs in their car which is a start.

I use it as a teaching opportunity. When they come to me looking for stuff I ask them what are they going to do when I'm not around?

Each hurricane season I'm asked for my hurricane punchlist by several folks. Slowly they're learning, especially as I'm learning to take more time off and and subsiquently unavailable.
