          ^ I sold a shirt to someone in Costa Rica on Grailed about a year ago that never made it.  The extent of the tracking had the parcel leaving Los Angeles.  About 6 weeks later it showed back up on my door step.  I imagine if there was any tracking after leaving Los Angeles it would have looked like Seul's disaster above.

          Rant of the day:

          Q:  What are (Insert Jean Brand)'s recommended washing instructions?
          A:  The same as every other brands!  Don't overthink it.  You're washing jeans not trying to brew the perfect cup of coffee.  Temperature doesn't have to be exact.

                          Yeah this is kind of crazy.

                          I would love to know what happened between February 16 and February 26.  @Max Power Will let you know once the hoodie gets back to me and we can figure out the route you want to take. I have a formal request/complaint in with the USPS since this was sent by a traceable and insured method.

                          This is why I tend to send a bunch of messages checking on if an item has/has not been delivered when I sell/trade items.

                          Sorry for the inconvenience on this and feel free to message me any questions, concerns or gripes.

                              looks like that the delivery guy "forgot" (replace it with too lazy, stupid, etc) to notify you and after the 7 days of max storage at the PO waiting for pick up, it got returned to the sender…

                                Picked my boy up from daycare yesterday and found out one of his classmates punched him in the face. The rule at daycare is that when such an incident occurs they don't name the offending child. Kinda pointless since my son will tell me who the child is  ???. Overall my son dealt with it maturely, even though it left him feeling bummed out that it happened. I should start calling his daycare The Thunderdome.

                                  i'm curious to know what you guys would do as parents.

                                  my son started kindy this year and not being from a 'perfect family' (where mom and dad are still together) sometimes i feel he might get bullied by the other kids who of course do not know better.

                                  on one hand, you could teach them to be mature about such incidents. but on the other, as a boy, you'd want him to be able to defend himself physically as well. it might seem much for 5yos but such things do tend to happen even in kindy level.

                                    Let me understand, do you have reason to believe he is being bullied or is it just a worry?

                                    If the latter then I would chill. Being pre-emptive about something that may not even be a problem will just cause your boy undue worry and stress.

                                    If the former then the first thing to do is to find out how he feels and what’s being said. I believe that what you really want to avoid is no response from your boy. That is to say if the child gets bullied and he just internalises it then that can be a real problem. At the least you want him to be able to talk about it with you because that helps him to process it and work out his own response.

                                    Then think about what kind of kid he is and encourage a response based on that. If he isn’t the kind of kid with a quick, smart mouth there’s no point in encouraging him to deal with it that way. You’re setting him up to feel inadequate.

                                    He should “stand up for himself” but that can be anything from ignoring the bully and walking away (bullies hate it when they don’t get a response), to talking back to the bully and saying stop, or meeting violence with physical resistance. Again depends on the situation and the inclinations of your boy.

                                    Also, wtaf? Is this really an issue anymore? In conservative countries, sure, but Oz is pretty  liberal and progressive? The divorce rate in Norway is 50% and it’s entirely normal to have kids before/outside of marriage now.

                                      i'm curious to know what you guys would do as parents.

                                      my son started kindy this year and not being from a 'perfect family' (where mom and dad are still together) sometimes i feel he might get bullied by the other kids who of course do not know better.

                                      on one hand, you could teach them to be mature about such incidents. but on the other, as a boy, you'd want him to be able to defend himself physically as well. it might seem much for 5yos but such things do tend to happen even in kindy level.

                                      I told my son that if he is hit, return the favor.  This was in 3rd  grade, 8 or 9 yrs old.Had to go to a '"conference" where I said to teacher, counselor and principal the same thing and if it happened again he would beat the shit out of the other kid and I'd be happy to come back and explain it to them again.  😘 They obviously thought I was a barbarian and found this 'unacceptable' . But that was the end of the problem.

                                      Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
                                      Well, I have others.

                                        Chiming in to seuls shipping Desaster - here's mine. Finally found the green hoodie in madmondays sale. It made it to Germany without customs, was on the rout to my postbox, never got delivered but instantly returned to the US and has been missing now for two weeks.

                                        looks like that the delivery guy "forgot" (replace it with too lazy, stupid, etc) to notify you and after the 7 days of max storage at the PO waiting for pick up, it got returned to the sender…

                                        sucks

                                        Yes, I think something like that. Not that it didn't happen before, but it sucks that it made it thousands of miles right near my home and then got shipped back and seems now lost. And the guy I called at DHL said he couldn't explain what the Driver did with the package - doesn't seem like he tried to deliver it at all.

                                        @elclintor:

                                        > I don't care what people say.. The Max Power way is the right way…
