Diploma Company vs Phony Diploma for an upcoming project?

Hi guys! I'm working on a short film and I need a super realistic background prop diploma. I've narrowed it down to Diploma Company and Phony Diploma. Has anyone ordered from either of these? I need something that looks absolutely legit on camera, not just a cheap printout!

Got stuck in a tiny town in Portugal with no cash and a dead card reader

Last fall, I was in a small village near Porto trying to buy a bus ticket back to the city. The machine only took cash, and my card wouldn't work at the one ATM because the strip was worn out. I had about 5 euros in coins. I walked to the only open cafe, bought a cheap espresso for 1 euro, and asked the owner in my bad Portuguese if he could give me cash back if I paid for a larger item with my card. He let me buy a 20 euro bag of local coffee beans with my card and gave me the cash difference. It got me home. Has anyone else had to get creative with a payment problem in a place with few options?

My professor told me to scrap my asymmetrical coat design, but it just won a small local competition.

Our group's vote on 'The Goldfinch' versus 'The Secret History' got heated last month

We had to pick our next read and it came down to these two Donna Tartt novels, with half the group saying one was clearly better than the other. I pushed hard for 'The Secret History' because I think its campus setting makes the moral questions sharper, and we ended up reading it. Did anyone else have a big debate over which of her books to tackle first?

Vent: A client in Denver told me my shop drawings were 'too detailed' to build from

It was for a steel frame job about six months ago. He looked at the section views and connection details I spent two days on and said, 'This is just confusing the guys in the field.' He wanted me to basically just hand over the architect's plans with a stamp. I felt like all my work was pointless... Has anyone else had a client push back on the actual quality of your drafting?

How wetting bricks before laying fixed my air pocket problem

It made the mortar bond better and reduced voids.

TIL ladder safety used to be a lot more casual back in the day

I dug out some old photos from my first year on the job, and we're just leaning ladders against gutters with no tie-offs. These days, my company requires a full harness system and a partner for any roof access. It's definitely safer, but man, it adds time to every install. What's one old habit you're glad is gone now?

I finally get why old cereal boxes are design gold

I was cleaning out my parents' attic and stumbled on a bunch of old cereal boxes from the 90s. The crazy colors and wacky fonts gave me SO much more inspiration than the sleek apps I scroll through now. Do you guys have a go-to vintage source for fresh ideas?

I finally passed on a promotion! Seeing a teammate crack under pressure changed my view.
