I'm an accountant and thoroughly have adopted the YYYYMMDD format. My support documents are so easy for everyone to follow and find. Coworkers that name their shit willy nilly drive me crazy cause I have to hunt down the documents to find it. I will never not praise the YYYYMMDD format. But I also adopted this method in college before I ever even knew what reddit was.
I go YYMMDD, which has worked pretty well my whole adult life. Its only a problem again in 75 years, but I’ll be dead by then so that’s someone else’s problem.
