16. More chaos and waiting in logistics (shipping) and wait times.

Tariffs have screwed up the supply chain that was back up and fully running after COVID.

Nobody was sure what to charge because things changed on the whim of one idiot. 10 days ago because the Trariff on Switzerland from 30 to 39% because the Prime Minister didn’t treat him nicely.
He appeared to be referring to the country’s former president, Karin Keller-Sutter, who served through December of last year.

UPS announced in October that they were getting rid of items in storage awaiting clarification on customs. We had a printed material order at work for swag at events. We really wanted them for an event in October but the vendor emailed that it was held up in customs. Two of my RW coworkers said “they really shouldn’t mention that”. We remarkably don’t talk about religion and politics (and we stick with it) so I just giggled as I walked away.
