1st Accounts Receivable (AR) entry - $50!

Packed up some parts today in odd-sized boxes.  Reminds me of the old Pelican Racing days.  Shipping and packaging was a particular talent of mine since I wanted to make sure my customers got their parts in excellent condition.  I know those monkeys in brown and purple are doing their best to destroy my packages, so I take extra special care in packing items up.

What may look like ordinary brown boxes to you actually took hours of time and effort to create and pad/cut/box/tape into their current form.  Doesn't seem worth the effort, but in the overall scheme of things, they're highly valuable.  $25 in profit per box (minus fees and shipping) means $50 cleared up under our $500 budget cap.  That will pay for the header and bank us $30 for future mods.  We're off to a great start!
