My partner is a psycho who does like 90% of her graphic design work on a 13" macbook air using only trackpad

As a graphic designer I need to ask what the fuck.

I never use drawing tablets, honestly, but I do need a real mouse.

Yeah, i mean she uses a tablet when doing the actual creating part, but mostly the job these days is moving assets around to fit the necessary sizes for different social media. I still don't understand how someone can stand to do that using a trackpad, but she's good at what she does so 🤷‍♂️

As a graphic designer, I'd quit being a graphic designer if laptop+trackpad was my only option D:

My partner used to do design on her laptop on the sofa with a graphic tablet. Inconceivable for me .

Dude I know these people. My brain explodes at how inefficient they must be.

Sometimes I forget not everyone is computer literate and so fast that their work laptop can't keep up with them
