    Behind the Scenes: The Great Inventory Count

    Nobody tells you this when you start out, but the real work begins around a warehouse mostly made of boxes.

    The old guard prefers a warehouse mostly made of boxes. The new guard prefers whatever is on the other side of the door.

    The Short Version, Told Slowly

    Our standard approach involves a returns policy enforced by staring, followed by a loyalty program that pays in headbutts, followed by a brief and unexplained sprint.

    If you take only one thing from this, take this: a shipping department located under the couch is not a bug. It is the product.

    As always, results may vary, fur may transfer, and the management accepts no responsibility for the hairball.

    Customer Service Is Currently Napping

    We have been doing this for what feels like nine lives, and we are still not sure who is in charge.

    Our standard approach involves a warehouse mostly made of boxes, followed by a returns policy enforced by staring, followed by a brief and unexplained sprint.

    The Short Version, Told Slowly

    Naturally there was a committee. Naturally the committee was a pile of boxes, and naturally one box was occupied.

    If you take only one thing from this, take this: a shipping department located under the couch is not a bug. It is the product.

    If you have questions, our office hours are three to four in the morning, or whenever we feel like it.
