Sorry for the ramble, it's been a long day. I know things need to be re-imagined,
things need to update, get better, but that's just not the case for much
of Shipstation. Thankfully I only do a few orders a day at my busiest, but still.
Latest shipping label, went through the whole process
of creating the label, charging me for it, then when I go to print... "She's
dead, Jim!". I get a link to the payment, a link to the tracking, and every time
I go to print or load the label itself, Error. Real conducive to business there
folks. Just a poor User Experience to round out a kind of a bummer day. Someone
post me some cartoons, stat! I'm ambling off to watch some mind numbing Netflix
show. I'll figure out sometime later whether I have to switch to Pirateship,
void the label, shortsell Shipstation to the point that all the hip kids want
to get in on the action and it folds overnight, or simply quit, or possibly all
of the above. For now, I'm off to Netflix and chill. Goodnight all!

I could not think of any printed cartoon that fit your scenario, but here is
an animated cartoon that you might be able to relate to, given your frustration.

Yosemite Sam and some of his bouts of family-friendly cursing:

Let me say that I use PirateShip regularly. Because so many clicks are required
to print out single labels, I sometimes get annoyed and act like Yosemite Sam.
Especially if I am in a hurry to print out a bunch of labels and race to the
post office with my packages before they close for the day.

Enjoy the cartoon, ya crazy idjut flea-bitten varmint.
