I'm still on "vacation" but I have access to a computer so I thought I'd write in about some recent shipping disasters.
Here's the part where I question why I'm shipping my pieces...during the holidays....and via UPS.
So I shipped out two toy boxes (mid-century style) before we left on vacation and was so happy to have everything caught up and a few weeks off from building. I unfortunately received two emails that said virtually the same thing...received the toy box but it's broken. WHOOHOO!!! I've shipped this particular toy box roughly twenty times and no issues until now.
So now the poor recipients and I are working through the UPS PACK AND SHIP PROMISE claim details.
Did I mention I had two glasses of wine at dinner?? Yep, that's how i'm feeling right about now regarding the whole shipping thing. I'm questioning it and noting which pieces hold up better when being thrown haphazardly from truck to truck.
Just when you think the whole "i own my own business" thing is running smoothly, something like this happens. I think I'll just go lie down and think back to the days of designing marketing materials and babysitting other people's kids.
Sometimes it seems A WHOLE LOT easier to just work for the man.
