Busy day on the farm...

I think I may have set a record today for our shop. I packed and shipped 16 orders today [one was not included in the pict]. The collection included one purchase at the NY fair by a client who asked that the books be shipped to him and several "follow-up" orders from the fair. Two purchases at the fair(s) for specific clients, two from online and the balance from catalogues/quotes.

I have three to go tomorrow. I like being busy...but yikes. On the plus side, they stacked nicely and I could carry them in one load.

Happy shipping day.

I used to work for an educational publisher, so the warehouse staff generally handled bulk orders for classroom sets and bookstores. Over time, the college business expanded which meant hundreds and hundreds of onesies being sent out as samples and professor copies. When it got really busy, some of the sales staff (like me) would be recruited to help get the shipments out the door. On the one hand, it was good to send out books because it meant business; on the other, assembling and packing all those little boxes was sheer torture. Ugh!

Happy packing!
