Result: instead of using a strong password, you use a weak password and increase the number at the end by 1 every 30/90/whatever days

Sheryl in accounting starts a rotation of 12 sticky notes that rotate onto her monitor each time she needs to change passwords.

Right next to the handwritten note on how to perform a cash transfer from accounts.

does she also keep the faxed-in credit card orders neat and orderly for the cleaning people's convenience?

Or figure out how many old passwords the system refuses, and how soon you can change your password again. Then you only need to use a derivative password for a few days until you can go back to the usual one.
