    Went to Waffle House today that was so short staffed they could only accommodate take out. No biggie. I just ate in my car.

     

    Also got an email from a tea supplier with sort of the same old I have been hearing about delays from everyone else.

     

     

    COVID-19 Update

    Here are some updates as we know them today (05/01/2021):

     

    For Davidson’s Organic Teas, communication is key when trying to explain things we cannot control. We recognize that demand for materials is at a historic high. COVID-19 impacts are still being felt in many ways in our industry, as well as labor shortages and typical economic imbalances abroad. While we may not be in control of all the supply chain issues right now, we want to have the ability to communicate and partner with you to ensure we work together to meet your needs and lead times.

     

     

    Raw Materials: What used to be a very consistent delivery process for raw materials is now anything but that. Tea shipments from origin have record backlogs with all major suppliers. This continues to push out lead times - anywhere from a week+ to months for specialty items.

    Packaging Supplies: Production related packaging supplies are also limited right now. This includes chipboards, wrappers, tags, SUPs, pallets, and more. Manufacturers are having difficulty getting the raw materials they need to produce packaging supplies. So delays are expected throughout the entire process.

    Freight and Delivery: Delivery lead times have extended as we continue to see issues with both incoming and outgoing freight and shipping containers. Know we are continuing to add shifts, employees, and even new production strategies; all of which adds capacity and gives us the best opportunity to help mitigate some of these delays. While this helps, order volumes are high and supply chain issues still exist, so our lead times have increased to accommodate.

  16. The best physical silver to have?

    The best place I've found to buy is instagram and ebay.

     

    Apmex, jm, modern coin all have higher prices and premiums than most sellers on instagram and ebay.

     

    Junk silver like 90 percent half dollars, scottsdale mint coins, pamp bars, englehard and jmatthey coins/ bars are where most of my value has come from. Their premiums rise very well when the office goes up.

     

    During the pandemic the silver pandas premiums have taken quite a hit so now could be a good time to start buying those up

     

     

    When you buy on eBay, how are you 100% sure you are not getting fake silver? Do you test after and use PayPal to dispute if that is the case?

  19. Do you think the housing market is going to cool off soon?

    Rates are very low and banks are back into the practice of giving anyone a loan.

     

    To be fair it's probably not just the banks right? It's also the low rates that are driving people to refi and get into the housing market whereas they may not have at higher rates.

     

    So at least in part the current hot market is a reflection of the lower rates and may not have gotten as hot if the rates were not dropped to drive people into the market.

    “Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors…even by children. Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views,”

     

     

    Dang, It is pretty darn easy to get get cancelled these days

    greg..you are wrong..it's the same, it just wasn't a violent as 1-6-21

     

    BUT conservative free speech is under fire and if you don't comply to our mindset(dems/libs) you will lose your livelihood. This comes from the group that says free speech must abound, it's ok to kill unborn babies but not criminals, contain the virus but open the borders to whomever.
