Looks like the May Miku concert has been rescheduled for September. Hopefully other stuff doesn't get rescheduled to a conflicting date.

The cat thinks I should stay home and nap with the cat, but there's lots of coffee to roast.

Coworker is listening to the Frozen soundtrack because why not

Mailed a gift certificate. We're not at the point of begging people to buy gift certificates, but I'm certainly not going to turn down the sales.

Next box shipping out previously contained infused dried cherries. The contents are now coffee.

Another tea box containing coffee went out today. I may have finally memorized the box dimensions.

Lots of empty shelves, but cat food was available. For human food, there's stuff I would have bought had it existed, but I can just eat different foods than planned. Did not strictly need anything that's unavailable at the 1 store I checked. Also got my mom broccoli because she forgot that on her last trip.

I haven't been to a grocery store since panic buying set in, but I need cat food so I'm going after work. Wish me luck.

Also got what I think is the first online order from someone in the same city. Have had a few from nearby counties but far enough away that I wouldn't want to do the drive either, but it's mostly been people who are farther away.

The online orders getting shipped today so far have all gone out in boxes that claim the contents are tea. It's really coffee inside.

The puzzle exchange used to have one where you put the puzzle together and then try to find all the cats hidden in the picture. It looks like that's been replaced by one that's the same concept but with horses.

I'm going to collect a couple more days of hourly sales data but we'll probably start reduced operating hours on Monday. It looks like people mostly stop showing up around 4PM and people aren't in a huge rush for their on the way to work coffee first thing in the morning, so maybe push the opening a half hour later. Will figure out if weekend hours need to change after this upcoming weekend. The web site, of course, takes orders for coffee to ship 24/7.

People are asking about gift certificates so I put a thing on the top of the site letting people know that we don't charge for postage if you want us to mail those. That's not a new policy, but historically that's only been used by people from out of town giving gifts to locals. Also posted drink/tea menus to help with higher volumes of call ahead orders.

I somehow ended up on a mailing list for some company that does weird free industry events in the UK and they're claiming to do a health and safety one really soon and like, really? You're really expecting a couple thousand people to show up at that event in the UK in early May? (not as if I ever go to any of their events, I don't even know how I ended up on their list)

Had a good chat with a roaster friend in New Zealand today.
