Shoutout to the old guy at the blueprint shop in Tacoma who called me out

I was picking up a set of prints last year and he asked why my title blocks were still in the bottom right corner. He said, 'Kid, that went out with vellum. Everyone's on PDFs now, put it top left so it shows first on screen.' I'd been doing it the old way for six years because that's how I was taught. It seems small, but it changed how I set up every drawing file since. Anyone else have a simple habit they had to unlearn when the tech changed?

Forget muscle memory, my brain still saves files to a desktop folder named "temp".

My desktop is just a pile of "new folder" and "new folder (2)".

Man, @gavin_reed, did that old guy ever ask why you still use folders?
