Last week our Airborne delivery guy told me he caught hell for delivering our prints early. Seems he made the unconscionable mistake of dropping off our prints at 11:30AM. Our delivery window is 12-2PM. According to him, TES called the depot and raised the dickens with his boss, telling him under no circumstances were the prints to be delivered early. Cardinal sin!! No problem if the prints were late, however. Being early was far worse.We are in a mall, and our guy starts deliveries in the mall at around 10:00AM, and makes us his last drop before he leaves. Not last week. After he received his repremand he showed up after 1:00PM, explaining that he had to leave the mall, make other deliveries, and then return to the mall with our prints, just so he would not be early!! Kind of hard to believe. Does TES have a "delivery Nazi" who watches out for early Airborne deliveries? ![](http://www.film-tech.com/ubb/smile.gif) No problem, however. I simply called and asked to have our window changed to 10:00AM-12Noon. Today I talked to our deivery guy, and he will now make us his first stop, so I'll get the prints just after 10:00AM. Then, on Fridays, he will pick them up by making us his last stop before he leaves the mall. This actually works better for both of us, so thanks, TES, for raising hell. You unwittingly did us both a favor! I know others may not be so fortunate to be able to change their window, so I'm wondering if anyone else has had this problem with "early" deliveries?
