SHIPPPEEEDDDDD!

So, alot of unwarrented drama.

I think the drama was ordering way back in the beginning of November and not shipping until a few days before Christmas.

Kinda annoying when you're trying to stay ahead of the game.

yea, that and a little more.
the drama is that they don't tell you what is going on. "Oh it's going to ship the 10th".... on the 10th: "Oh, it's shipping out 15th"... on the 15th: "Oh it's shipping on the 18th"...
they are pulling this shit where they keep baiting you on that it's going to ship in time, and keep "guaranteeing" these ship dates, but you really aren't guaranteed anything. this whole time, if they would just tell you "hey, it's still being manufactured, and we don't have them yet, it might not ship in time for Christmas" then people could actually cancel their orders and buy something else in time. but they don't want that, so they just keep dangling that little string of hope...

either way, i'm one of the lucky people who are actually getting their nooks in time, so hopefully it doesnt arrive broken or damaged.

I have officially lost all respect for this planet.
It used to be standard make the beast with two backsing practice, that no matter what the circumstance or situation, when you say you are going to do something to your customer as a business, you make the beast with two backsing get it done, no matter what. Now U-P-make the beast with two backsing-S has decided that my "overnight" shipment will be "rescheduled" until tomorrow... That's TWO days. WTF happened to responsibility. There is zero make the beast with two backsing consequence for them to not have this delivered when it was supposed to be, and nothing will get make the beast with two backsing done about it.
I took it upon my self to call UPS and clarify for "Tammy" the difference between one day, and TWO... and that you can't exactly "RESCHEDULE" the term "OVERNIGHT."
Is it that hard to do your make the beast with two backsing jobs?
I could have driven my ass to New make the beast with two backsING Jersey in my Dodge make the beast with two backsING Neon and BACK with my OVERNIGHT package TWICE today. They left Jersey at 10pm last night, and only made it to make the beast with two backsing Philadelphia?! make the beast with two backs THAT. Were they on a make the beast with two backsing horse-drawn carriage?! The Jersey make the beast with two backsing Devils made it back and forth between there and Pittsburgh 3 make the beast with two backsing times in 3 days... Give their bus driver my make the beast with two backsing box.
CHRIST.
