I heard about this this afternoon. I tried Netflix and got on. BUT I do wonder if that is why I couldn't access my online banking around noon today?

I follow a lot of planner sites and groups, and one one group is a woman who makes stickers for planners that people lose their minds over. She only sells them periodically, in a binder, and people literally take the day off from work or otherwise adjust their schedules to be able to perch over their computers at the moment the sale starts. It's got to be a huge moneymaker for the seller. Well guess what today was?? The internet was so spotty today that she had to halt the sale for a while. I feel bad for the people who were waiting to buy, and especially bad for the seller, as this is her business and livelihood. I have zero patience left for the thieves of the world and those who try to make life harder for others in general. I just want to know who this sticker lady is.... (I'm a planner nerd). I got stuck at people taking time off work or scheduling their lives around buying stickers to put in a planner. Boggles my mind. Do people really decorate planners so elaborately that they take time off work to buy limited edition stickers ? (Not criticizing.... I've just never even considered such a thing) |

I've just never even considered such a thing) I'll be honest, the stickers are cute, but for me personally, I wouldn't go to those lengths. It's all a little too complicated for me (everything on the website shows out of stock except at these special sale times). But I give the owner major credit, because she created a product that people fall over themselves to get. Every business owner's dream. katybee, here is the link to the website: www.krissyanne.com/category-s/102.htmThere is also a FB: group. www.facebook.com/groups/KrissyanneDesignsForEC/ |

I was unable to place my Starbucks mobile lunch order. I had to go inside, then wait for it to be made. There's a tragedy for you.

According to CNN, it was. I couldn't get onto Box.com for a while. Yes, Box.com is our m main file storage space at work and it was down. Some freaking out emails were sent out about this. Luckily our team of six was at a retreat, so it didn't affect us. Could have been a rough day!  |

Our internet at work went down for about fifteen minutes. Our internet phone system also went out. We have Comcast as our internet provider.

They're cute...but nothing special, just like you said. They were very generic. I can find 20 sellers on Etsy that sell similar stickers. My job is safe.... |
