Why Motivational Gifts Desk Plates for Professors
Academic life is pressure from every direction. Publish or perish, student evaluations, committee work, and the myth of the easy professor life. These stickers get it.
Traditional motivational posters assume you haven't been crushed by the corporate machine yet. Cute. Our version acknowledges reality: that 'reaching for the stars' usually means unpaid overtime, and 'teamwork makes the dream work' ignores that nobody asked about your dreams. These gifts motivate you to lower your expectations to a sustainable level.
