Remember trying those recycled paper notebooks that shed flecks everywhere during client presentations. Once had a "plantable" pencil sprout a tiny green shoot right in the middle of filling out a form. Feels like some eco-friendly stuff is built more for the idea than for actual daily use. Makes you look like a mess when all you wanted was to not use plastic.

I used to think that mood stuff was kind of fluffy, but hearing how @val_sanchez's friend's whole outlook changed (even on a tighter budget) really shows the trade-off can be worth it.

My old signature was light blue on white, basically invisible. Guess I thought mystery was a good aesthetic.

I always add subtle patterns to charts in those cases, like dots for blue and stripes for purple. The client kept their colors, but my dad who's colorblind could finally read it.

Team at my last job changed a layout that fixed a huge communication bottleneck. It absolutely impacted team roles for the better.
