Warehouse Roulette – Naked Covers
February 23, 2012 11:59 pm

I’ve been bugged by Jenn and others to write posts on the blog for a long time, but I didn’t want to have to figure out what to write about while staying somewhat on topic. So the obvious solution was to write about random things in the warehouse. Warehouse roulette! To make it fun and very random, I put all of the warehouse locations in a box, mixed it up and drew a location.


To make things even more interesting, little Elsie was also sick with something – either the Flu or just a really bad cold and I was supposed to be taking care of the kids while Jenn was away. By the amazing grace of Skype and friends/family willing to take the kids back and forth from school for us, we somehow made it through the week this far. Here’s hoping the boys stay well.
So what did I draw? I didn’t really draw a product this time. This location is where we put naked covers to send as replacements for warranty issues. Naked covers? Oh la la! Show me a pic! Ok, here it is:
As a side note, I upload larger versions of the images, so if you want to see more detail in one of the pictures, just click on it (like last week’s warning label on the bottom of the medela breastshield box).

Speaking of returns, we have an amazing returns department. You have to have a special gift to work in a returns department that handles diapers. You would not believe the nastiness that can arrive by mail. I used to open the returns because Jenn would get grossed out by it. We understand when you’re upset about your diapers having an issue, but, really, sending in barely washed poopy diapers that are still damp via ground from the other side of the country in the summer is not the best way to win us over for sympathy. Chocolate on the other hand….
The most amusing part about returns (for me anyways) is seeing all of the creative ways customers pack their diapers. Customers have used everything from shoe boxes, to fancy printed boxes, to paper bags mummified with tape, to grocery store bags not mummified in tape, to disposable diaper boxes (which are always fun to carry high through the warehouse).

Here’s to a better week of not being sick!

I can’t imagine returning a dirty diaper! At least wash and dry it first! People are gross.
Are you serious that people return dirty diapers???? I can’t even imagine having that thought for even a second. So very disgusting.
HUGS! Be better soon. Best wishes Diapering dude.
Feel better, Jimmy! The flu is no fun, especially with a family to take care of.
