I have a colleague that insists on using pen and paper. He has draws and draws full of random scraps of paper which apparently have important things on them.
He's even gone out and got expensive paper which is apparently made from stones? and is there for waterproof, It does appear to be waterproof but I'm not convinced it's made out of stone. He has a phone and a Laptop, and an iPad Pro with a stylus, and he refuses to use any of them.
You don't really seem to like him very much haha
Yeah because he can never find anything. He knows he wrote it down, but he doesn't know where it is or what it said, and because it's not on a computer you can't just search for it. He's a pain.
Even if he just scanned in the results of his spider scroll at least we'd have something. Although it still wouldn't be searchable because it would just be a picture but I bet OCR could probably do something about that.
You can totally be disorganized on a computer too. My paper notes are organized in a binder by context.
Idk sounds like the guy just has untreated ADHD or something. Life's too short to be mad at someone for being kinda bad at their job. You're all just workers together.
He can be as disorganized as he wants up until it makes my life more difficult. Then I'll be mad at him.
Don't gatekeeper being mad at annoying people.
lmao gatekeeping? calm down ๐
You actually seem to be the one with the personality problem here.
People are telling you their stories, and you're like "no your stories are wrong you're a shit person." What the hell is wrong with you?
you're projecting a lot here? but go off
Do you mean drawers?
