Move done; kind of....

Those that have been keeping up on my pages or Patroen or Discord might know that we've had a major move recently. While we've only moved a few towns over (about 35 min drive from original location) picking up and boxing a family of 4's possessions from over the last 12 years is a daunting task as the best of times.

We DID hire movers, and that lead to a nightmare of smashed tea ceramics and broken glasses. While some issues were to be expected, I found the act of them boxing at least 5 boxes of nothing but trash +1 movable item. While the box filled with grocery bags and cat crap was a close to top annoyance, I do have to give credit to the box that had a box that had a smaller box in it (and that was it).

But not to only complain about things, I did want to give a shout out to everyone who's helped support us in the time and those that have great patience with us and the weeks lack of artwork and streams. While we do have start to the unpacking taken care of, we still have almost a garage full of boxes to find places for in our home. Slow going, but to be done eventually. We'll be working to get back to some sort of normal stream schedule and art posting soon, and just ask (again) for patience while we get things going, especially from everyone with past due commissions that we're trying to schedule in (many thanks).

Our oldest will most likely NOT be attending in-person school come this fall, so we're having to look to see what our options are with that as well, which means more kid-sitting time and "home schooling" (I use quotes because he has the attention span of a gnat and I have no idea what we're doing).

Regardless, keep an eye out for our streaming schedule and with any luck by next month we'll be on a regular rotation. Thanks again to everyone for the support.

Now, back to the drawing board.

I can understand them not liking it and grousing about it, but actively sabotaging baffles me.

What, were they paid by the box moved or something?

No, they were paid by the hour. And the first day they showed up (we were to have them available for 2 days) they told us we'd be charged a 3 hour minimum each day, and after 45 min of loading boxes from our house, they told us they were NOT going to be loading more from the storage unit (which they had previously said they would that day) and that the crew didn't feel like helping us box stuff, so they were going to take off early... while still charging us for 3 hours of work.
My wife had to call their manager (who was out of the state on a business trip) and have them direct them to come back to aid in the boxing for the additional 2 hours... which is where the passive aggressive boxing and breaking began.
