Okay, let me tell you about this little red rebel on my desk. The first day I placed it facing my boss's direction, and the snort-laugh I heard from across the room was totally worth it.
The double-sided feature is genius - I flip it to 'Professionally Unqualified' during meetings when someone suggests yet another 'quick fix' for our overloaded system. My team now uses it as a mood indicator for when we're drowning in chaos.
What surprised me most was how this 5-inch plastic rectangle became an icebreaker. New hires always comment on it, and suddenly we're sharing work horror stories. It's like office therapy disguised as decor.
Pro tip: The bright red color does fade a bit near windows, but mine still gets the point across after 6 months. For the price, it's delivered way more laughs than my expensive ergonomic chair ever could.
