Gifts for Your Mentor - Mugs for UX Designers
You advocate for users, create flows nobody follows, and somehow explain why 'just add a button' isn't the solution.
Why This Works
UX design is fighting for users while navigating stakeholder opinions and technical constraints. You see problems others create.
Your coffee mug is the first thing you reach for every morning and the last line of defense against losing it in the 9am standup. A good mug doesn't just hold your caffeine addiction - it communicates your entire personality without you having to speak to anyone before 10am. These mugs say what you're thinking so you don't have to.
