Normally, it costs ~$30-40 to ship packages from here to Cali for work via UPS.

Today, I logged on to see what it'd cost to ship a package there.
$80.

Eighty fucking dollars.

Dude. Shipping costs have gone up a TON in the last few months. Small packages are about the same, but anything over 5 lbs is fucking crazy now. USPS is cheaper than UPS for most of our packages, but also way harder to deal with if there is an issue.

Shipping companies can eat a dick.

Regarding "eat a dick"...I've noticed I've been using this a lot of my real life. I know 100% where it's from. Thank you Louise for what is becoming my new favorite saying.

The thing is, USPS's prices increase dramatically if I ship past the Mississippi, which is why I used UPS.
I can't use FedEx because every single time I shipped something, they tacked on $20+ worth of charges because it's a criminal organization.
This whole thing with UPS, though, really caught me off guard. Especially since I have several regulars that ship from the western US, so a 200% price increase in shipping could, potentially, kill my business. :cry: :rant:

Styes just need a good poppin' like a zit. Take two q-tips, disinfect them with boiling water and pop away.

You can come in the tub with all of us to. We can go to my house if Olin's tub is too small.

man, I just miss my Dad. It's like my first thought every time I wake up.

I want to do stuff but shit I still feel awful. It's already been 3 months but it feels like yesterday. Who knows how long this grieving shit takes.
