First time? Start here. Read "The Primer" and follow the link at the end. Chronological order makes more sense for the stories.

Oh, the Golden Age of the internet.  Who'da thunk that we could get all the conveniences of the real world through some fiber optics and the wonderful world of shipping & handling?  Not this serf that's for sure, whoever did are richer than Nazis that's for damn sure.

Seems like ol' reliable Female Boss is catching on too.  Why, just the other day she had me order some stuff online for her.  I kinda walked her thru the steps on what making an online purchase entails and she seemed to have liked it.  The thing is, and we all know this by now, something ain't right with Female Boss.  I think she is really missing the point when it comes to ordering things online.

I mean, think about it.  We don't use the internet to do all our wheelings and dealings.  We only do it for the sake of convenience, maybe we can get a better deal for the item online or the brick and mortars just don't carry the product in our area.  So we embark to the virtual shopping malls and geterdun, as it were.  Female Boss, though?  Nah.

"Hey Northe, would you see if the post office sells stamps online?"

"Sure thing."

Research complete, "Why yes, Female Boss, yes they do."

"Oh, great!  Can you buy me a roll of stamps then?"

"My pleasure."

I order the roll and then everything comes to a head.

"Great, I can get outta here now.  I'm gonna go shopping and overnight this package at the post office."

Wow, ya don't say.. way to take advantage of the convenience..
