Welcome to the new norm, right? 

Its hard to imagine it back to 2019. Can’t get people to show for interviews / 
work at more than double the pay of 2019, something like 40 container ships 
sitting in SoCal oceans, saw NYC / east coast is getting backed up, etc. 
Holiday stuff is going to be a blast / expensive.

I'm getting really tired of dealing with supply chain issues. Like burnt out, 
don't want to do this anymore, I've had enough tired. 



Just the things I'm dealing with today: 



The last few days, all of my spare time has been related to reviewing options 
to replace a part which has become unobtainum. Like as in, manufacturer has 
moved from a long lead time to 'don't bother asking'. This seems to happen on a 
recurring basis now (with different parts) - versus pre-covid it was maybe once 
every year or two (since I'm careful to select parts to avoid this issue). I've 
had one part I've had to switch vendors on like 6 times now. 



And it's not just parts, my enclosure manufacturer for the rackinjectors sent 
us this gem today: 



"We had the enclosures ready for pickup since last week, but our road is under 
maintenance and the whole street got ripped off. My forklift is not able to get 
off from our driveway to the road because the step is very steep. I heard the 
city will start paving tomorrow. Hopefully we can load the pallet by 
Wednesday." 



Can we please go back to the way it was in 2019 sometime soon?
