Any day at the office has its challenges. From the time you wake up in the morning to the morning commute to the actual time spent in the office, what you do for a living can be more of a frustrating task than a joy.

We all look forward to any idea that might be able to help, within reason. Thank goodness that with the evolution of technology comes a few gadgets that could make your day at the office a little easier. Below are three such day saving devices.

Checkweigher Machines

Have you ever had to take a package to the post office and have it weighed to see how much the postage was going to cost you? You could almost say, “Who hasn’t?” However, when you work for a business that has outgoing packages on a regular basis, taking them individually to the post office to have them weighed is an extreme waste of time and money.

Checkweigher machines are built precisely for this purpose. Whether you are a factory mass producing a product or an office building with a lot of outgoing packages per day, a checkweigher machine can help you make lite work of the mail.

They are designed to help you weigh packages or commodities and keep them under an assigned weight. This way, you can calculate shipping faster and have everything already ready to go when you get to the post office. That saves time.

Portable Batteries

These days, our phones have become like another appendage on our bodies. We use them for everything. Whether we are reminding the kids to do the dishes or making sure our boss got the last email we sent, the point is we use them a lot. During all that use, there are times and places that we frequent that are charger deficient.

This leaves us with the dilemma a low battery and possible missed messages and deadlines. The same could be said of other devices such as our laptops and tablets. Having a portable battery could save our corporate life. Portable batteries are exactly what they sound like. In the “old” days, when your device had a low charge, you had to make sure you were near an outlet.

Then, as time progressed, car chargers made it a little easier to recharge and keep going. With that said, it’s quite difficult to take your car into the office with you and you can’t exactly get up from a business meeting and plug up your phone. Thus, enters the portable battery.

iKettle

All of this doesn’t even matter if you can’t start the day on the right foot. Most of us don’t even want to consider conversing, much less coming into the office without that first cup of coffee. Sometimes, just getting out of bed to make that first cup takes an act of Congress.

No need to worry about that either anymore. Check out the Smarter iKettle. With this perfect little brewer, you simply set things in motion with a touch of a few keys on your smartphone and voila. You have a steaming hot cup of coffee that you didn’t even have to get out of bed to make.

Granted, you will actually have to get up to drink it and then go to work, but the simple privilege of staying in bed five more minutes allows you five more minutes to muster up ambition for a new day.

A day at the office can be a strain on your mind, body, and spirit, but with these simple gadgets, it doesn’t have to be.
