I wonder, Laura. IME they are almost as inclined to find ways to not pay out as medical insurance.

Our wings are not tired.
I certainly wouldn't put it past them. Insurance companies are evil.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's hard to be thrilled that a Trump-endorsed candidate won a race, but Jeff Sessions got his ass handed to him in Alabama, and I take some satisfaction from that.

Question for the hivemind - I have a new apartment and I'm getting new furniture. A number of the places I've looked will send furniture, but it requires assembly. I'm not up to that. Also, with my apartment building, anything much larger than a magazine has to be checked into our package room; they use a service called Parcel Pending (which seems to be evil) that sends a code which unlocks the package room. But then I have to haul the package up to my apartment and unless I can snag a handtruck or something, I have to work out how to get it upstairs (there are elevators, so I'm not actually hauling it up stairs, but there's a lot of hallway to navigate).
Any recommendations for furniture companies that will actually bring furniture, haul it up to my apartment and, if needed, assemble it? I have one on order that's supposed to provide that (at an additional cost, which I'm OK with), but a lot of their stuff will come directly from the manufacturer, leaving me with the haul/assemble dilemma.

I know that Ikea works with Task Rabbit for assembly, and you can also just use Task Rabbit directly for folks to help with things like furniture assembly, they will probably also do things like moving the packages.

ooh ... that's an idea ... thanks - I even checked some stores that you'd think would have assembled furniture, but even they have a lot of "direct ship" and "assembly required" things
Thanks!

As someone who recently has been assembling furniture, I do not recommend it.
In other news, the kitchen spider is dead. Its reign of terror is over.

shrift, congratulations on the end of the reign of terror ... could you specify as to whether you're not-recommending Task Rabbit or assembling furniture (the latter I know, having suffered through trying to assemble two things from Bed Bath and Beyond ... NEVER AGAIN)
