Message:: [QUOTE="John Burgess, post: 7951551, member: 105098"]I'm just going to say, the mint isn't the only business with a supply chain or labor problem. that's not "normal" and I hope it passes quickly, however it's be ongoing to some extent for nearly 2 years now, and I won't say why, because that topic is a no-no on the site, just saying "conditions" are all kinds of screwed up for the last couple years and it has an effect, and it's usually the customer complaining. So I get people complaining at me, in turn I complain to the distributor or  freight forwarder, they complain to the manufacturer, and it goes nowhere, and I bang my head over and over because it's so damn hard nowadays to spend $100 or $100K, NOBODY is in a hurry regardless of how easy, or how much can be made,,,, or wants to hustle anymore regardless of the margin they make. it's falling apart I think. people need to wake up and get their act together. these last 2 years turned most folks into zombies, and I mean like SLOW, not necessarily mindless, Slow, like they can't make a decision or something. The mint has their share of problems also I ain't gonna lie, not all of it is their incompetence though, a whole lot is everyone else in the supply chain that can't get things right and smooth anymore. END RANT. MTFBWY also! Yoda says it best "Do…or do not. There is no try." everyone is trying now a days and winds up not doing.[/QUOTE]
