Sometimes your job follows you home not because you’re working after hours, but because you’ve somehow accumulated an entire stash of stuff from work! Teachers always seem to have pens and whiteboard markers lying around. Doctors have stethoscopes and gloves. Nurses have hand sanitiser. Chefs have a collection of Tupperware and takeaway containers. Accountants have calculators, and photographers always seem to have spare SD cards. And then there are those jobs where you end up collecting things without even realising it like accreditation tags, branded freebies or whatever your workplace seems to hand out! Hang out with Anele and The Club on 947 every weekday morning.

[4:30] Speaker 6: Yes.
[4:31] Speaker 1: Are they printed? Why do you have so many extras?
[4:35] Speaker 7: I have so many extras because some customers, they would
[4:39] Speaker 7: say add dessert and then they change their mind. No,

[4:43] Speaker 6: Oh.
[4:43] Speaker 5: Yeah.

[5:51] Speaker 2: those people again.
