haldir Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Hmmmm, do I order a couple things from minimarket due to their BF sale (prices are reasonable), along with some prepainted Spelljammer minis I've had my eye on, but my last order from them took almost a month (28 days), this was due to their moving into a bigger warehouse & such. Thou, shipping has always been a bit longer than usual with MM, with them using SurePost as part of the cheapest shipping option (not my favorite). We shall see. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Service Manager replied this morning and informed distributor that he is off this afternoon, while implying that I will be available to help. I am planning on leaving 90 minutes early today for my four day weekend. I'm debating between telling the service manager off, ignoring him & the distributor, or taking the call and deliberately screwing up the startup so that I'm never asked to do a Canadian one again. There are differences between how the US and Canadian credit card setups are done, so I have a plausible reasoning to screw it up. Here's another option: Inform Canadian distributor you have a "Hard Cutoff Time" due to Thanksgiving Travel Arrangements. Pick whatever time is convenient for you and inform them it doesn't matter what point the setup is at, you are leaving at the stated time with no overrun. There's no excuse for the management of a Canadian Business that does as much business as they do with a US Company not knowing the dates for Major US Holidays and booking work accordingly. GEM The end is rye but I prefer scotch. Edited November 23, 2022 by Green Eyed Monsty 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TGP Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 I prefer to savor the end rather than hasten it. It may be nigh but it is not a science guy. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not what I wanted to do, but what I did. I haven't heard back from either, which means that either a) the distributor hasn't seen the email or b) the service manager made other arrangements. 34 minutes ago, Green Eyed Monsty said: There's no excuse for the management of a Canadian Business that does as much business as they do with a US Company not knowing the dates for Major US Holidays and booking work accordingly. Except in this case it's a Canadian company doing business with a Canadian company. The company I contract to is Canadian. This is the case of a Service Manager who has no excuse for not remembering or not caring I'm off for the holiday. Could be that he's pissed about the week between Christmas and New Years, too, and this is just him being passive aggressive about it. The factory shuts down that week. For the last 16 years, in exchange for having Christmas and New Year's off, I've covered call that entire week, as it's mostly US customers calling then anyway. But this year my son is coming home from the Navy that week, and I put in for it off. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time with your son on active duty trumps managers long term habits. GEM 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
