Oh, wow. Yep. Never really considered others have the same unhappy annoyance.

“I’ll just put this over here, just for now at least, and I’ll remember that I moved it.” …while hoping that forgetting doesn’t happen and knowing that it probably will.

Worse if it goes into one of those things that gets moved again and consolidated and moved again.

Yeah you have to always store things in the same exact place every time, or they'll get lost. Despite being well aware of this fact, I still make the same stupid mistake every single day. Drives me insane.

Agreed. Habits are good to have when it comes to some things, for instance putting your car keys in the exact same place every time. I absolutely have to do this. My SO is the exact opposite and puts her phone down, keys, payment card, whatever in random places and constantly has to look for them. Drives me absolutely nuts and she refuses to see it as a problem despite lost cards and having to turn around and come home because missing pocketbook and driver’s license and the like. Ah well, nothing to be done.

My mother has pretty heavy OCD, and she absolutely has to have everything at the exact same place every time. If we misplaced something as kids, she would flip out, that pretty much burned into my brain and now I have to have everything at the exact same place as well. But on the plus side, I almost never lose something.
