Guest Admin Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 So the nightmare is almost over and the day that we finally received the remaining copies of the Norma Jean box set and the 2 rarer colors of Sparta "Threes" is here. Today, the curse was almost continued when the Yellow Freight truck showed up and said that he was told we had a loading dock (we don't) and that he would have to go back and get this re-dispatched to a truck that had a lift and a pallet jack. This would have meant that we would not have received the records til tomorrow and I have a crew of friends coming over tonight to pack the pre-orders tonight. Luckily, he found another yellow truck driver to come over and the trucks went ass to ass (not unlike Requiem for a Dream) and one truck gave the other truck our pallets of records. From that point, the pallets were lowered and with the pallet jack, the pallets were brought into our warehouse. We received 120 boxes of Norma Jean and Sparta and I could only imagine what in the world I would have done had we still been doing things out of my house. Can you imagine? I should also be receiving about 20 boxes of Screeching Weasel, Queers, and Off with Their Heads tonight. I hope to post photos at some point tonight or tomorrow morning. I am very lucky that I have some good friends to help pack orders. Wish us luck as we aim to get all the pre-orders out by tomorrow. Beer and Pizza will be our fuel tonight.

sgoodcore Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Doesn't look very "peachy" though... You're lucky you're getting anything motherfucker. As dumb as it may sound, sometimes I wish I lived in CO just to partake in the all night madness that is packing records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Admin Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Doesn't look very "peachy" though... i agree, and had hoped it to be more peachy, they look cool, but I prefer the black with peach splatter which looks more peachy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Admin Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 a side note, we are doing a papa johns vs pizza hut challenge as I just ordered from both places. Papa johns said it would take between 35 to 55 minutes, pizza hut said it would take 45 minutes. The race is on! expect an update soon!

heavyheavylowlow Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 I applied for a pizza hut drivers job about a year ago, they wouldn't have me because I had 3 penalty points on my liscence. BASTARDS, think their pizza is too good for us dangerous drivers, we'll see who's laughing when I crash my car into their fucking store front whilst high on Domino's pizza cheese.

mattisr1984 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 papa johns won the battle of the corporate pizzerias. Fuck! i suppose it could be different location to location, but around here, for corporate pizza places--papa johns destroys pizza hut and dominoes any day. their breadsticks rule as well. very excited to finally see the light of day on the NJ boxset.

corbet Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Will there be any prevention to stop the custom jackets from being damaged when mailed? This always seems to be an issue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hickey Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 It would've been rad if both Papa John's and Pizza Hut showed up at the same time. They'd think it was one pizza place pranking the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
