1. Lots of pens in multicolor. Pens are mostly pakai-buang (read: colleagues will borrow your pen and most likely not to return and you'd have the tendency to misplace them on a daily basis)
2. Good coffee to keep you sane from the office hullabaloo. Enough said.
3. Sauce and ketchup. Optional, come in handy when the McDelivery forgot to give you extra ketchup.
4. Earphones/headphones. Fucking important! Shuts you out when your colleague who sits near you have gas issues and disgusts the hell out of you with the burping. Earphones/headphones on is a universal sign of "Do Not Disturb" when you feel like dissociating yourself.
4. Side/rearview mirrors. One of the shortcomings of being human is we don't have another pair of eyes at the back of your head. You views are confined to a strict 180 degrees. Side/rearview mirrors helps you to tell that your boss is approaching so quickly hide that YouTube/blog/non work related window! You can use real mirrors, or in this case, a slice of wafer fab (silicon, not the edible wafer) or anything that reflects.
5. Spotted: used rubber on the floor. Maintain your calm. A common sight, mildly culture-shocking for newbies.
