Weekend Express
Tuesday, May 17th, 2005We had an order come in yesterday that had a big sticker on it “Sat. Delivery”. Another read “refrigerate on arrival.” We opened it up and sure enough, room temp cooler packs and warm reagents. The vendor was really good about replacing the product (fresh and cold ones came in this morning) but it got me to thinking. How often does this happen, and how much is it costing vendors? I’ve actually never asked a rep this question…perhaps I could. Another issue, do any institutions have cold storage holding facilities for this type of problem? Seems like a lot of money is getting wasted b/c things get shiped on Friday afternoon.
Random iPod song: This is how it Goes by Amiee Mann
PS. I’m starting a fund for an iPod for hbogey…donations welcome…what is vinyl anyway?
