Amazon has waiting lines…

No, I’m not kidding you, I just finished up my holiday shopping for my out-of-town relatives, and as is normally the case, Amazon was my retailer of choice (for the most part). It makes wrapping and/or shipping those gifts OOT so much easier! But it looks like Amazon is having some load problems, as it kept misplacing my session, sending me to an error page that really didn’t make sense. I figure it’s their default error page, a bad one at that, but not all was lost as I was able to use the Back button and continue working. Eventually I was able to get thru by doing this about 10 times during the process, but it doesn’t bode well for normal consumers who won’t understand what the heck is going on….not that I’m worried about Amazon’s bottom line being affected by such a glitch….

BTW, I’m about to call Amazon and offer my services as Santa’s little helper, by helping wrap their outgoing orders. On average, they wanted to charge me about $4 per item to giftwrap it (everything was smaller than a breadbox)! Guess the only problem is I don’t live near one of their distribution centers to make it possible…but those workers must be paid well with that much coming in per item….even though the hours and workload pry suck. Wonder if they off-shore…
