I don't know where things "go", but I know where I last put them!

Yup, both methods have the exact same weakness - someone else moving something I need.
Of course, as you imply, everything should have it's place in a shared workspace.
- eternityforest 5y agoI never have any idea at all where I last put things. I just remember 5 to 30 minutes ago I had something... and that's all I know. I've pretty much always relied on full searches of my entire surroundings, or very long term plans with labels and everything, since remembering a new location takes active effort or weeks of time, I don't just see things and passively remember where they were. The desktop completely rearranging itself randomly doesn't even bother me, as long as I can quickly scan the task bar, since I basically never use Windows any way other than maximized.
