Guess they couldn't get a grip on things. They really didn't grasp the depth of the issue

I just bought 6 and went to look for the explanation. No dice.

The supplier ran out of apology labels.

They’re probably going to forget once they realize how much more profitable they are making that extra .01 per unit.

They handled this poorly. Some would even say they didn't handle it at all.

Well I for one don’t think their excuse holds water. They could find another way to tackle this handle issue.

Crystal Geyser, the only water that actively makes you more thirsty from drinking it. Or is it Arrowhead?

I buy the same water. Was wondering what happened to the little white handle at the top. The jugs where I live have no apology on the back.

Hopefully, they are going back to the stick-on handle. Once they cheaped out and switched to the push-on handle, which breaks after a few uses, I stopped buying them.

Not that I buy a lot of these but I use them for work and camping and they would last over a year

"Broad supply chain" aka container ship from China.

  1. Why would a water bottle need a handle? 2. Why are you destroying the planet?

  1. It's a big bottle. 2. I recycle them.

  1. Their bottle is fully rPET, they own their own PET recycling facility where they produce the bottles.

That's the only bottled water I buy, when I have to buy bottled water.

Because a gallon of water is heavy, karen. Virtue signal somewhere else. If you need it, get it. If you don't, don't. If you get it, recycle.

My guess would be that your tap water is fine. But if you just have to have bottled, use the refillable 5 gallon jugs.

My tap water? You didn't mention me or my tap water. Personally? I drink tap water almost exclusively, and if I ever get a plastic bottle I reuse it (even beyond a safe amount of times) then recycle it. But your original comment was pretty out of pocket towards OP. Lot of pretentious assumptions.

Again, you don't know someone's personal situation. Sure, if you're in a place with good tap water and exclusively drink bottled water because you have the money to do so, that's not really great. If you grab it when you need it either for emergencies or because you needed it at that time and to use later to refill and recycle, then so what?

Supply chain is too unstable to carry handles, but plenty robust enough to stock stacks of labels shitting on the supply chain?

Yeah, it's pretty easy to change what a printer is printing. Not so much to ensure you're getting a structural element that can safely support a gallon of water.

LOL bottle water company simps.

These people deserve to rot in hell, and you're backing them over this petty "insult the supply chain" dig.

You know an apology label shitting on the supply chain for apology labels would be more mildly interesting though.
