#4 Today's truth from the workshop: Everything is possible. Except for what you just asked for.

“I know it's a bit tight on time, but can you fix 40 more tees by tomorrow? Nothing fancy. Just a quickie.”

That's exactly what it sounds like when someone loses all sense of reality but still tries to sound reasonable. Like adding "just a quickie." makes the whole mission more... charming?

I don't know where this idea comes from – that it's just a matter of “pressing a little”.
As if I snap my fingers and the prints fly into place while Jeanette sings in the background and the printer purrs with happiness.

No. It doesn't work that way.
I have tape on my elbow, the coffee tastes like chemicals, and the pressure list stares at me like a threatening letter from reality.

We are fast.
We are good.
But we're not a feel-good scene from some fucking Netflix series where people press shirts barefoot in broad daylight, drink herbal tea and find themselves in every cotton fiber.
