Ah, the joys of global trade. Gotta watch out for those weather tantrums, currency fluctuations, and labor unrest. It's like managing a symphony orchestra, but with more spreadsheets.

Whoa, looks like we got a real 'perfect storm' of potential supply chain disruptions here! Better keep an umbrella handy, just in case.
