Getting sign-off 🤯💆🏼♀️
Does this feel familiar?
I dusted this one off from my cartoon vaults because I reckon it goes on EVERY FLIPPING DAY.

Rebecca is talking about how we can make data sexy, and how to be a data storyteller, using one of @HelReynolds amazing illustrations!
Apparently, the first 2 weeks in March is National Procrastination Week.

Of course we can't all go around knowing the ins and outs of each other's jobs.
But have you ever got the feeling someone thinks we just sit there, fiddling with the internet all day?
