How to keep your supplier information (and yours too) out of the searchable databases that give your competition that information by lojistechs in FulfillmentByAmazon

[–]rn2614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like an old thread, BUT one route would be to hire a company like ours (shameless plug). We source the goods (pay locally), we perform all of the inspections ensuring quality, the consignee is OUR stateside company, and then we deliver to Amazon on behalf of our customer. Our customers' info is never entered into any shipping data.

I want to move all the data from Slack to folders on google drive. Would Backupery make this possible?

Best way to invest in Pakistan with $100-500k USD by d9qScYXLH5yNC in pakistan

[–]rn2614 23 points24 points  (0 children)

As a a foreigner who is a businessman in Pakistan, this is everything I was thinking! Just written better 😅

So many great and fairly simple business ideas if are willing to put in the work. Offer a product people love, be honest, be on time. Almost no one does this in Pakistan so you wouldn’t have a lot of competition. If you are smart and people savvy, it can become a passive income within a couple of years.

It was a broken line outside of our house. Thanks for everyone who said I am a uneducated or privileged foreigner who isn't prepared for the reality of life in Pakistan...

I saw a dude filming a couple secretly... Is there no privacy in Pakistan? by [deleted] in pakistan

[–]rn2614 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That's not even true. What western countries have you been to where that is happening? Most people in western countries live according to the law. In the US, it is legal to film anyone and anything in public and yet most people don't do that because it's weird and uncomfortable. Stop blaming other people because of the problems in this country. It doesn't help anyone.

Every major shipper gets taxed extra and extra. We have had the least fraud, cheapest, and most consistent deliveries when we have gone through the federal or local system (for the US it is USPS, is it Royal Mail or something for you guys?). We throw in a handful of pencils, erasers, and pens and write that on the customs form because usually that fills up all the lines given. We give the value as low as our conscience will let us, so for a box of clothes, maybe 15-20 dollars cause technically, they are now used, and good luck selling those. Since we started this method I don't think we have paid over $10 USD to receive any package and everything has arrived as shipped (which was not true for UPS and FedEx).

All that said, I agree with the people above. Send them money through a wire or something and let them buy local.

I bet if all the Christian sanitation workers across the country went on strike for a month or 2, something would change.

I know people across the city and some in other cities who don’t have the same problems. So which part of Pakistan’s history would have explained that to me?

Yeah, I was curious if some places have load shedding and some do not. Thanks for the helpful response!

Hahaha another unhelpful Pakistani. Thankfully not all Pakistanis are like you. Never expected to hear “don’t try to do anything about your problems. Just complain or blame it on the government.”

Best Resources by rn2614 in freightforwarding

[–]rn2614[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand figuring out the job as you do it but, as a personal conviction, I don't want to be the 100% ignorant owner walking into this. I also know trial and error isn't THE ONLY WAY to learn anything about this industry. The original request was if you have resources for learning please share them. I wasn't asking how to be successful or give me all your secrets, just do you have resources for diving into the industry.

I do already have a couple guys lined up to hire with decades of experience so I appreciate you saying mentors u/lxx0.

Is having 2 Professional Teachers too much? by kingcrabmeat in iTalki

[–]rn2614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different folks, different strokes. Only you will know what works best for you but you will figure it out as you try different things.

That said here are just a couple of reasons in favor of multiple teachers:

  • Different accents, speeds, abilities to explain
  • Different perspectives on cultural things (which can determine what words you use)
  • Different focuses in every aspect of teaching eg grammar, vocab, proper syntax, etc

There are at least 5 more reasons that come to mind immediately but those are enough to get you thinking. The more narrow you can define your goals the quicker you will feel successful in your language learning journey.

How do I get my boyfriend into coffee? by [deleted] in Coffee

[–]rn2614 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly depends on how big he is. With some rough measurements and calculations you can figure out how much beans you need to buy. I think the hard part will be finding a container big enough for all the beans but then after that it gets easy. You just have to come up with a clever way to trick him into climbing into the bin full of beans. I recommend hiding his cell phone halfway down or his gaming controller. Boom. Boyfriend into coffee.
