I dunno, tangentially related but I'm thinking of having a couple of bug out bags packed, one for here and one for work.
Nothing extreme but at least a change of clothes and some water and food. Maybe copies of important documents. And a towel (gotta know where your towel is). Even something as simple as "There's a gas leak/unidentified package down the road. You need to leave the house immediately and we don't know when you can come back." would make it handy I reckon. Maybe never needed but not exactly expensive to set up.
As for EDC, well my work bag has a bunch of odds and sods in it like a torch and whatnot but that's mostly item x gets chucked in when it might be handy and just doesn't happen to get taken out again.
