This chart is pretty standard, and inoffensive. But we can still make it better.
Version 1
I removed the decimals from the data labels.
Version 2

Version 3
You love axis labels. Then, let's drop the data labels.
Version 4
Ahh, so data scientists struggle with data problems, and people issues. They don't need better tools.
