Most of us carried around about 10 floppies in a case. I had a fancy case that held 15 floppies and expanded out like a little set of stairs.

Most files we carried around were well under 100kb. We didn’t carry photos around, digital cameras weren’t a thing and we didn’t scan photos unless they were going into a specific file or something.

If I did have to carry a file that was larger than 1.44mb, I used arj to compress it and split the archive into 1440kb volumes. Arj had better compression than zip.
