Remembered a client's dog photo once, made me add pockets to everything.

inPro tip: Clear CMOS before declaring a motherboard dead
Tech necromancy" is a perfect way to put it. I once spent a whole afternoon swapping parts before I realized my own screwdriver had nudged a power switch to the off position. Felt like a real genius that day.

inJust realized I've been opening my mail wrong for years
Ha, that's actually pretty smart. I've used a butter knife to open letters before when I couldn't find the opener. It does the same job, just looks a little weird.

Can we talk about the time a client's logo file was just a screenshot from their website?
Oh man, that's the worst. I read a blog post from a designer who said the "screenshot logo" is practically a rite of passage. They had a client send a tiny JPG pulled from a Facebook profile picture for a billboard. Another story was about someone using a photo of a business card they took with their phone. It just shows how what looks okay on a phone screen falls apart completely in print. You end having to give a crash course on pixels versus vectors.
