Don’t do it if you’re not gonna do it right
It’s one thing to make a mistake when you’re finishing a job, and you’re just adding the last details to it. Those can be forgiven (not by us; by other people). However, how can you justify something like this?
There’s no way to save a product when it simply doesn’t do what it was designed for. What’s the point of putting that little eraser at the end of the pencil if it makes an even bigger mess than the one it was designed to get rid of?
It worked better in their head
Everyone has been in a situation where they picture something in their head, and it looks flawless, but then they make it happen in real life, and realize it doesn’t work at all. It’s the famous expectation versus reality.
This is completely normal, and when it happens, all you need to do is readjust whatever needs to be adjusted. Or, you can do like the person who thought the oven would be perfect on that exact spot, and settle with opening the oven door every single time they want to take something from that drawer.
