Hi everyone -


on occasion the Store gets requests to 'just stop by and shop'. That's not how it works. The Store is not a retail operation but a warehouse with a part-time shipping operations. Please don't ask to come by and shop or pick up items to avoid shipping.


Thanks,
Thaddeus

Is this mostly directed towards NC locals or other random Appleseeders?  Or do the asks come from a mix of both?

"Responsibility is a unique concept... You may share it with others, but your portion is not diminished. You may delegate it, but it is still with you... If responsibility is rightfully yours, no evasion, or ignorance or passing the blame can shift the burden to someone else. Unless you can point your finger at the man who is responsible when something goes wrong, then you have never had anyone really responsible.�

It's a mix ... locals, people driving through, others. The Store is not set up to be a retail operation.
