This probably runs counter to most of y'all but for filling small
numbers of short times to kill I think that a few bags of rectangular
blocks and some slopes would do.  I like building in two modes.  One is
to see what I can do with plain bricks and the other is to use as many
specialty pieces as is appropriate.  I can amuse myself for hours with
just 2x2 slopes, inverse slopes,  and 2x4s.  OTOH, I certainly do
business travel less than you, and if it were common, I might change my
mind.
