Shipping anxiety and relief :)
Am I the only one who suffers from shipping anxiety? I am talking about either shipping a snake, or awaiting a shipment. I am constantly tracking the package; worrying about it; until my buyer contacts me with the good news of a safe arival.. or until the snake is in my lap out of the box in one piece. 
Anyone else care to comment?

I just went through the receiving end of that this morning. I was nervous from the time I received notification of shipping until UPS knocked on my door this morning. Thankfully, it all went without a hitch.

I do really bad! Mainly because I wrk for ups and I know that shipping labels such as "fragile" "this side up", "live plants" "live animals", etc sometimes don't mean much to package handlers. I've worked for fedex as well and I must say there a lot worse than ups.

I freak out when I ship reptiles! Its my worst fear to loose a reptile while your shipping to someone.
Getting one, im alot more relaxed, just the waiting kills me.

Hey just being honest! Just something you should know. Your snake will go through diff shutes and belts probally bumping and flipped over.
Sorry to sound harsh! Don't mean to at all!

Pfft I just shipped today in the afternoon. Im sittin at work refreshing the UPS tracking every 30 minutes. When youre responsible for the delivery of expensive animals and have no control over how they get delivered, hell yes it's a stressful time.
