Gifts for Your Mentor - Stickers for Machinists
You make parts with tolerances tighter than most people's patience. Work with machines that could kill you. And somehow explain why 'close enough' isn't a thing.
Why This Works
Machining is precision work that makes everything else possible. You create the parts that go in everything. These stickers honor the craft.
Stickers are the universal language of 'I'm over this but I'm still showing up.' They're small enough to fly under HR's radar, durable enough to survive the chaos of your job, and expressive enough to say what you can't say out loud. Slap one on your water bottle and let it do the talking while you maintain plausible deniability.
