Gifts for Interns - Mousepads for Graphic Designers
You turn vague requests into visual gold, survive revision rounds that should be illegal, and somehow explain why Comic Sans is never the answer.
Why This Works
Design is art meets client management. You create beautiful work while interpreting feedback like 'make it more fun but professional.'
You spend eight hours a day moving a mouse around in circles while your soul slowly leaves your body. The least you can do is have a mousepad that understands. These aren't just functional desk accessories - they're tiny billboards for your inner monologue. Every click is a little more satisfying when it's on something that gets it.
What You Get
- -Smooth fabric surface for precision clicking through pointless emails
- -Non-slip rubber base that stays put during rage-clicking
- -Stitched edges that won't fray like your patience
- -Machine washable because desk snacks happen
Perfect For
- Laptops covered in stickers
- Water bottles at the desk
- Studio decor
- Gifts for designers
- Monitor setups
- Personal gear
Things to Consider for Interns
- *They're poor—gift cards are genuinely appreciated, not tacky
- *Remember: whatever you give might end up on their social media
- *Make it useful for their next step—they're not staying forever
