Take heart Dave. When I was young I often worked 14+ hour days six days a week. Just look at me now in my 58th year. I’m as handsome and fit as I was back then. I still have hair on parts of my head and my teeth are easier to clean than ever. Hard work never killed anyone. It just cripples them for the rest of their lives.

Hmm..ok, accidently deleted my last comment…
But you have my undying respect for actually being able to answer emails like that with relevant information….
Very impressive.

Thanks for the encouragement. I feel like the life is slowly being sucked out of me by people who can barely speak english asking me the most intricate details about their overseas orders, people wondering what the dimensions are for every bible cover we own, and people who have never stepped a foot out of their home town in east osh cosh. “Thanks Dave, you learned me pretty good.”

No joke this is one of the emails I’m handling right now:

LOOKING FOR 3 DIFFERENT ITEMS
1. AN ILLUS. BIBLE WITH ‘ARTISTIC’ TYPE PICTURES IN ANY VERSION EXCEPT KJV. SHE DOESNT’ WANT ‘CARTOON’ TYPE PICT.
2. AN EASY TO READ BOOK ON SALVATION FOR BELIEVERS. (HC)
3. A BOOK ON SATAN AND HOW TO KEEP HIM OUT OF YOUR LIFE. (HC)

It’s easier than it sounds, but it’s still overwhelming at first look.

Hey Dave,

Sorry to hear about your car; so goes like with a Saturn, from what I hear. Except for my old piano teacher, who got some 200,000 miles out of her Saturn station wagon. But she was an artsy, meticulous, vegetarian, and very persnickety about car maintenance. I think she did what few others have done: kept her Saturn running. So more power to you, brother, in your quest.

As for your second shift job, take comfort in the fact that old ladies can now stay up and order Jabez way past their bedtime. Old seminarians such as myself can also order Moo or Fee in the elventh hour. You are making the world a better place, my friend.
