Gifts for Your Mentor - Desk Plates for Developers
You turn caffeine into code, debug problems that shouldn't exist, and somehow explain technical debt to people who just want features.
Why This Works
Development is creative problem-solving with impossible deadlines. You're expected to estimate work accurately while requirements change daily. These stickers understand.
That generic nameplate on your desk says 'Account Manager' but your soul says 'Professional Email Ignorer.' Our desk plates bridge that gap. They're the perfect blend of professional enough to stay on your desk and honest enough to make your coworkers snort-laugh. Finally, a nameplate that tells the truth.
