Update on shirt printing #2/final update on printing #1.
As of five minutes ago, the very last shirt to have been returned to me due to mailing issues (in this case, the person changed addresses) has been re-sent. (If you're wondering if this is you, the initials are "JA.") I now have no shirts from printing #1 waiting to be delivered. The lovely Deborah has emailed everyone who reported non-delivery of their shirts to see whether this has been resolved. As soon as we hear back from them, we'll be submitting printing #2 to the shirt shop for production.
The shipping plans for printing #2 are much more organized than they were for printing #1, because we can be taught. We'll be having an all-day shirt packing party, with typeset labels, culminating in becoming an urban legend at the local post office. ("And then they came in with three hundred envelopes...the horror...") I can't guarantee that we won't have another "some of the shirts are missing" issue, and while the shirt shop dealt with this quickly, it did create some printing delays. Still, I will keep you posted, and the goal is a two-day drop for all shirts.
Thank you very much for your patience, and please let Deborah know if you have any questions or problems.
This may be a Thing You Have Already Done, but it might be worth talking to your local post office about how to reduce the hassle factor of 300 envelopes. They might open up 10 mins early for you, or they might have a preferred way to deal with this stuff. Or they might just say "please come in at X o'clock, it's the least hideous time".
Yeah, that's the plan, as soon as we know for sure which "local post office" we're going through. The current plan for the shirt-stuffing party has us in Alameda, instead of at my place.
