  1. Staircase goes at the back; perpendicular to the long axis of the house and either facing the entry or above the basement stairs. (which would then be facing the entry, probably behind a door)

  2. The traditional mudroom is behind the backdoor (which is probably on the side of a colonial); front doors are for guests, and you should be taking their coats for them and laying them on the bed in the spare room! However, you could build something like #2 or #4 here in which the exterior wall of the house (including the front door) is bumped out about 3 feet in some part of the porch area, the roof of which extends something like a further 3 three feet). This creates space for hangers inside the entry and funnels people into the living area; there's a nice spot for a closet if you have winter coats. (or just want to piss @ToaKraka off)

Like this:

                          (stairs are up here somewhere)
                                   
                                  |        __
               Optional wall -->  |       |  |  (some other room here)
       (nice place for hooks tho) |       |  |<--closet
                      ___________ |       |__|___________
                          |       |          |       |
                          |       |__......__|       |
                          |                          |
                          |__________________________|

There was somebody from the Yukon who came down with symptoms upon return and is quarantining IIRC!

"anything that comes to your specified location on a 3T+ truck" to be clear; construction materials, cement, water hauling, stuff like that (plus freight I assume -- although I don't deal with that often). The installers/resellers of these things usually just roll it into the price at the consumer level. I think ferries may add a line on your ticket at times though?

In the short term, I think we're going to see a lot of industries try to normalize a "fuel surcharge".

Assuming you're in the US, I'm surprised this isn't already a thing -- it's been normalized for all manner of things in Canada since... I wanna say 2008? The last time we had a big sudden spike, anyways.j

Amazon etc. probably won't do it because they don't need to -- they will just tell their supply chain to eat it, and it will.
