Adding/Including Memories
I lost my dad last year (2023) and have been finding ways to include keepsakes/memories in my workstation. I've dabbled here and there with doing small woodworking projects and attempted a wrist rest from a piece of oak I picked up with him from my great uncles wood shop. I milled it to fit a 60% keyboard as I hadn't decided what keyboard I would be using it on and thought that's where most of my wrist would be in contact even typing on a full keyboard. I gave it a torched/burn appearance as I really was lost in what to do. I found an old shell casing from going hunting with my dad in my hunting pack and decided to imbed it into the end of the wrist rest so it would just have a little difference and a small story behind it as well. I have other things around my workstation from family and friends, but it just feels a little more special having worked on it and adding something small that has a memory for me to it. (Purple was my grandmothers favorite color and I have kinda now...

We’re back with an update on the Massdrop Cache EDC Display Valet. Upon inspection of a sample of final units, we found a number that didn’t meet our quality control standards. While we have conducted multiple quality control inspections during the manufacturing process, the QC issues we’ve discovered were not apparent until the units arrived at our warehouse. Therefore, we do not feel confident about shipping these items just yet. Massdrop stands for great products and it’s our goal to deliver you the highest quality product. Early next week, our team will be doing a rigorous inspection where we’ll be looking at every single unit. From there, we’ll be able to provide more information regarding the shipping status of the display valet. We’re sorry for the additional delay and want to make sure we’re providing as much information as we can regarding the status of your product and when you can expect it to ship. It’s our hope that we can begin shipping by the end of the month.
At this point you've cast doubt over whether or not we'll be getting a quality product or if we'll be getting it on time. Between this and your tendency to go radio silent for weeks on end and not respond to requests for update leaves me with a bad taste in my mouth.
If this had happened earlier I'd have just canceled my order, but after this much time invested you really have us over a barrel.
If this wasn't as highbrow place I'd be using some not so nice language....
Seriously... At what point do you people realize that this is blantantly unacceptable? You're just giving us lip service at this point. Clearly no one cares to actually provide meaningful customer service. How's that independent inspector working out for you?? Let me guess... "Someone was there just last week and it seemed okay!" That about right?
What do you plan to do to make this right? Actually put yourself into the customers position at this point if you're still able to, pretend it was you. What are you going to do?
