I had a phase of “where’s my keys, I’m literally about to leave oh I put them in my jacket pocket 15s ago” once I bought a new jacket with what I compare to cargo pants pockets.
I am paying with intense emotions for 15s every morning so I don’t have keys poking me in the thigh.
I have a bag, and I got one of those quick disconnect keychains, so that I can attach the keys to the outside of the bag that always has my cards and ID and phone.
No poke, but I can see they’re there visually instantly, and while I have the power to misplace anything, by attaching the keys back to the bag in the car, I make it so that I’m only ever looking for something the size of a cat instead of the size of a rat. Much easier to find.
Good hack. I got a snap hook case for my earbuds’ charging case. It’s always on my belt loop.
