April 15th, 2008
It's been awhile since the last update, but it's because I've been so busy working on all the orders and everything and it's gotten really stressing, and everything seems to be piling up real quick. Although I can't stress enough how much everybodies patience is extremely appriciated and can't stress enough how fast I can only go to make everyones demands.
I'm almost at the point where I want to give up, and I'm getting overwhelmed and down, but I wont give up, and I just have to take it as it comes without getting too overwhelmed and out.
Inch by inch, life's a cinch, yard by yard life gets hard.
Baby steps.
Jan 15th, 2008 - IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT
Ok, 2007 was a really crazy year for us because of the amount of orders and issues here and there, and 2008 is looking to be up..but not out of the woods yet.
Be advised now, that the current turnaround time for any order placed after now is not 5 1/2 weeks. I try and aim for that deadline, but we get so many orders a day that it's almost time to hire people and move into a building..or sweat shop. It's gotten that big now.
So if your order takes longer than 5 1/2 weeks please do not email me about where it is at, or that it has been 5 1/2 weeks. Or 6..or 7.
I currently have 160+ orders that each take about 7 hours a piece to make. I average about 3 full orders a day on that ratio. So as you can see Im quite up to my armpits in order debt.
I am going as fast as humanly possible and trying to get everybodies orders out as quickly as possible. I have some really old orders to get to first, such as those who forget to click the return to merchant link and then email me about it months later.
I get hundreds of emails a day about orders, questions etc etc. I try and answer all of them as best I can, but If you dont get an email back it's because Im not responding to emails about "it's been 2 days, wheres my order" and such things.
Jaded Dreads as a business has become an empire almost overnight and since it's only 2 people running the show, the ringmaster is becoming very tired and stressed about the amount of peanuts being thrown at him.
And to answer some emails about me being shady/fraudulent..Im not. Im a real guy, with a real business, who is really busy trying to maintain and keep everybody as happy as possible.
So in a nutshell, turnaround time may be longer than expected/stated. Like I said, were only two people, who honestly really get no or little sleep at times because we're trying to play catch up with everybody.
I hope you understand and we can't express how much your patience is appriciated.
