51 Alternatives to a Real Job shipped on Friday!

I got a surprise message from my printer on Friday morning that the books were ready to pickup… so I spent ALL of Friday getting them (my daughter took pictures, which I should have posted soon), packing the pre-orders, and then going to the post office to ship them.  Shipping is… expensive!  I even ran out of envelopes to put them in (cool because that hasn’t happened to me before, uncool because some of you got VERY EXPENSIVE envelopes – I chose to foot the bill for those instead of making you wait until I got my new envelopes).

Anyway, if you pre-ordered, look for it in the mail soon.

If you haven’t pre-ordered, get yours here: www.51Alternatives.com

Yes, Kindle version is coming soon.

  1. Well, that was FAST! Mine just arrived…. I’ll be poolside reading it when our California triple digit temps cool. Love the cover!

  2. Jason,

    I got one of the expensive envelopes. It was worth the money. I was impressed that you had to apply the stamps by hand. It seemed more personalized. I’ll remember that when I start the marketing push for my new Head Lice Removal Business!

  3. @Mike – honestly, I was surprised. Normally when I go to the post office they have one stamp with the exact amount, OR they print them off… I didn’t expect to put 6 stamps on each envelope. But I’m glad it had a personalized affect 🙂

    Come to find out, the postal employee didn’t give me the best rate so I paid about 40 cents more per envelope (in stamps) than I should have. That bugged me… oh well. I find that if I work with 10 different post office people, I get 10 different answers. And no one is willing to budge, be wrong, or listen to me and what I’ve learned shipping stuff for over 5 years as a consumer.

    Lots of customer service lessons to be learned here. And, maybe someone can make money training the USPO on customer service :p (another Alternative?)
