All I did was open the bag, undo the twist tie around the cable and plug them in to one of my USB ports. It even works on the open port of my Mac keyboard, a port usually not too friendly to non-Apple accessories.
Now my feet are warm and comfortable. My attitude has improved and I have become more productive. Works better than those stupid “attitude-adjustment” seminars they try to send us to.
So do I carry my laptop with me so I don’t have to unplug or get a USB extension that will reach the restroom and the fridge?
