Yeah, he wants this to replace name plaques, apparently. And he's pretty set on giving them animations, along with all the extra hardware to support them, on the idea that it'd be seen as "fun", not tacky. And that you'll somehow get a raise because of it.

The alternative he wasn't quite pushing as hard was a programmable e-ink screen. In that case you'd lose the animations but be able to run it for years off a watch battery. It'd still be programmable, so you can say you're at lunch, for example.
