Is there a better brand than this?
(no)
Proud to share that Hollow Socks is paying off $500,000 of Veteran Medical Debt through Operation Debt of Gratitude.
Incredible work here by Bear Handlon at @BornPrimitive and @EvanHafer at @blckriflecoffee to make this a reality. @Forgiveco_PBC

If your initials are SM, I’ve got the cup for you!
Either way, reply here and I’ll swag you up.
I cannot believe that @ChadCarleton and @Reinfish went to the trouble of inscribing my initials on the bottom of this cup.
Unreal commitment to customer service.
Imagine what they can do for your DTC brand as your 3PL!
In all seriousness, thanks for the swag up, gents!

We had one of these on the warehouse floor.
It was a cardboard gaylord flipped upside down with a door and a Uline lawn chair inside. It had no lights or windows.
We decorated with tensil and branded it The Cry Shack.
We're proud to provide safe spaces for our employees.

You know you’ve nailed culture when you tell 200 people they’re going to work 70 hours a week and they cheer.

Had engineer recently mock us for our “vibe coded” solution vs their alternative which it turns out was built identically.
A huge amount of the Anti-AI code sentiment massively overestimates the quality of human code outside of a very small set of open source and high quality company codebases. Human Slop is everywhere and can trivially be improved on by any opus level model.

But UPS is "currently only prioritizing profitable business..."
This move from UPS is further evidence that their claims of not wanting ecomm revenue is a false flag ahead of critical union renegotiations
UPS announced TikTok Shop returns can be dropped off at their stores for free now. No package, no label required.
Great move for the customer, makes the process significantly easier for them.

Fun fact about hometown of Springfield MO:
There’s two markers on the town square.
1 where Cody stood and the other where his opponent in a card game fell after Cody shot him down. More than a 100’ shot with a pistol.
Cody held 2 pair, Aces and 8’s. Now called the dead man’s hand.
If you watched the ballad of buster scruggs, this is the hand he turned over in the saloon and refused to play them.
Welcome to Outlaws & Gunslingers!
I've always been fascinated with the American Wild West.
As a boy, I devoured every book and watched every Western I could find.
Why is my profile picture Buffalo Bill Cody?
From the 1880s into the 1900s, he kept these stories alive with his Wild West show long after the frontier was gone.
I hope to do the same with this account.
Saddle up!
I'm watching a trend of people hired for a job spending all their time building tools for people who would do their job but nobody is actually doing their job.
