Note to non-parents
Thursday, April 17th, 2008Yes, babies and little kids will cry during air travel. Yes, it is annoying. Yes, we all wish it would stop. But your dirty looks and expressions of frustration are not going to make things better. Mom and Dad are doing their best to quiet things down. You can help by facing forward, keeping your f-ing yap shut and being content in the knowledge that when the plane lands you can continue on about your important life in peace. I know it is very very hard on you but your temporary burden and sacrifice is appreciated by human kind. (Inspiration for this post was provided by the dude in seat 22C. Get a life asshole.)

Nice going rookie. Next time keep your hands on the bars until you cross the line.
UPS
Thursday, April 17th, 2008My company ships $6000 frames all the time. We insure them for the full value and charge the dealer the price of the shipping plus the insurance. Each year we have 2 or 3 frames that are damaged by UPS.
UPS never honors the insurance claim. They state that we did not package the box correctly. It’s economically impossible to package the box correctly to satisfy the UPS requirement.
So why should I continue to insure these frames? Should I save our dealers money and just pony up to have the occasional 2 to 3 frames damaged each year repaired?
This seems like such an obvious decision…
