    Kettle and a toaster...

    Seriously, decent tools. Type depending on what you do. Networking, fixing stuff to walls, taking PCs apart, whatever. Good tools always make the job easier.

    I think your first idea is best!

    As soon as it gets to this time of year, and all the staff and catering staff are on "part-time" hours....you soon learn the value of a kettle and toaster!!!
