Bought a sketchbook and decided to put it to the left of my keyboard to see if anything came of it.
Full success! Doodled up these under-desk hook designs until I had one I liked, revised the shape in Illustrator, extruded in Fusion, and 3D printed and mounted within an hour.
I'm one of those insatiable people that loves to write regex. One of the most useful places I've found to do it is in vscode. In document or global search and replace, you can enable regex and go to town.
For example, across 16 files, I had to remove all `<u></u>` tags that some email html generator tool had added around various sets of content.
`<u>(.*)</u>` / `$1` took care of all ~80 instances in one go.
It looks like `expectedServiceTimeUTC` is giving out a really nice clue as to what my position is in the queue. With 4 sessions open, all say `progress:0.01` but each has varying service times ranging from 1 to 2 hours.
This Queue-it service is used by a lot of other companies, like Disney, where you can usually use these same tricks to provide some sanity to just staring at a seemingly unchanging page.
