You just need a slightly over sized jumpsuit and a backpack. Coffee time is before & after the ride to work.

I ride to work often if it's not going to rain. The laptop goes into the saddlebag. I ride to work in dress slacks, dress shirt and wing tips. I put the tie on when I get there. I guess I don't care whether someone else thinks it looks right or not.

Saddlebags are your friends. Get a removable set. There are plenty around that are cheap. If you're woorried about arriving disheveled and/or sweaty, just leave a change of clothes at work and wipe down when you get there.
I have back issues so the backpack thing wouldn't work for me.
Just think of all the money you'll save in a year in gas. Give 1/3 to your wife, 1/3 in the retirement account and 1/3 put back into the scoot. Now everyone will be happy.
