Notes are great. They give you a feeling of planning as well as control. However, every note-taker knows that such a "paper chaos" can quickly turn into chaos.
Especially in the working world, notes can become stumbling blocks. Because often only the note writers have an understanding of the arrangement, can decode abbreviations or interpret their own handwriting. But if, for example, the employee in question is absent and a required piece of information is buried deep in the mountain of notes, it simply takes too much time to search. In the case of customer or even order data, this leads to embarrassing phone calls and - well - a lot of extra time. Not exactly efficient. Under time pressure, an unnecessary stress factor that harbours dangerous error traps for all involved. It doesn't take long for a "6" to look like a "0" and the wrong number appears on the order form. When "1600" becomes "1000" in production, it is more than just a small faux pas.
