- what: ICQ dialogue between Bubba and Woozle
Bubba 12/19/02 12:00 AM She initially emailed me and asked if they
were in stock I was checking on them and she
said she'd place the order if we could get
them to her and I said probably by Christmas
and then she didn't order
woozle 12/19/02 12:01 AM Ok... well, since no deposit, no loss if she
declines or doesn't answer...
Bubba 12/19/02 12:02 AM rt. I may go ahead and get them just to keep
up relations w/Flores
Bubba 12/19/02 12:02 AM think our cost is 12 per
Bubba 12/19/02 12:02 AM I'll call Flores w/the other shipping info and
tell them to hurry
woozle 12/19/02 12:03 AM sounds good. Once we know the pieces are en
route (get tracking #s if poss), we can debit
those ccards for real -- which would be a real
help about now.
Bubba 12/19/02 12:04 AM rt and they're 2 hours behind us so it won't
be early our time
woozle 12/19/02 12:04 AM k
Bubba 12/19/02 12:05 AM George is working on the yellow benz and needs
fuel, so I'm gonna go get some so he can maybe
get it running when it gets back
Bubba 12/19/02 12:05 AM I'm shocked that you're still awake so I
hadn't planned on talking to you
woozle 12/19/02 12:06 AM more stuff to locate is in email on its way 2
u
Bubba 12/19/02 12:06 AM I should only be gone for about 20min
woozle 12/19/02 12:06 AM Up late cuz Mel needed a ride back from LotR
11 pm showing... heh...
woozle 12/19/02 12:06 AM but I'm pretty blasted...working verrryy
slowwlyy...
woozle 12/19/02 12:06 AM ttyl
Bubba 12/19/02 12:06 AM so you're up for a bit
woozle 12/19/02 12:06 AM will be picking him up at 1:45
woozle 12/19/02 12:07 AM may take a nap between now & then
Bubba 12/19/02 12:07 AM rt so I'll be bk in a min
woozle 12/19/02 12:07 AM k

Can you call? Can you check and see if that's
one of the lamps we have left? I guess I'll
include her even if we can't get the # in
time...
Bubba 12/19/02 8:19 AM Turtle w/bears is not available. We looked
for it when you were down last time
woozle 12/19/02 8:21 AM meaning we don't have it, not that it's n/a
from LB, rt?
Bubba 12/19/02 8:22 AM rt, we had one and shipped it and so we have
no more here
woozle 12/19/02 8:22 AM k
Bubba 12/19/02 8:22 AM oh and GM
woozle 12/19/02 8:22 AM Wouldn't be terrible to have one in stock, I
spoze
Bubba 12/19/02 8:22 AM nope

change shipping to billing address. says he
sent email telling you to do that
woozle 12/19/02 11:58 AM checking
Bubba 12/19/02 11:58 AM don't know
woozle 12/19/02 11:59 AM we should probably stop calling customers and
start calling in restock orders
Bubba 12/19/02 11:59 AM k
Bubba 12/19/02 11:59 AM didn't have a ph# for the other one
woozle 12/19/02 11:59 AM I see no email from Crittenden nor do I have a
folder for his order
woozle 12/19/02 12:00 PM changing addresses
Bubba 12/19/02 12:00 PM k
woozle 12/19/02 12:00 PM Correction -- I have two emails from
crittenden, but they're both of the "where is
it" variety
Bubba 12/19/02 12:00 PM k
woozle 12/19/02 12:01 PM "change shipping to billing address" -- means
use the shipping address as the billing
address?
Bubba 12/19/02 12:02 PM B as S
Bubba 12/19/02 12:02 PM son is gonna be home
Bubba 12/19/02 12:02 PM as a birthday gift originally
Bubba 12/19/02 12:02 PM was ordered as a BDG
woozle 12/19/02 12:02 PM but that doesn't fix the credit card problem
Bubba 12/19/02 12:03 PM was an address mismatch rt
woozle 12/19/02 12:03 PM and billing address and shipping address are
already same -- 1422 Dearing Place
Tuscaloosa, AL 35401
woozle 12/19/02 12:03 PM the address mismatch was on the billing
address
Bubba 12/19/02 12:03 PM should be 90 something
woozle 12/19/02 12:04 PM (they always are on the billing address)
woozle 12/19/02 12:04 PM I have no other addresses for him
Bubba 12/19/02 12:04 PM will call him back
woozle 12/19/02 12:04 PM k
Bubba 12/19/02 12:07 PM 906 Cypress Mill Rd.
Florence, AL35630
woozle 12/19/02 12:07 PM entering that as billing and shipping
Bubba 12/19/02 12:07 PM y
woozle 12/19/02 12:08 PM entered; testing...
woozle 12/19/02 12:09 PM matched. Tanqu...
Bubba 12/19/02 12:10 PM kewl
woozle 12/19/02 12:10 PM ok, so let me get you The List and then we'll
tackle how to pay for this stuff.
Bubba 12/19/02 12:11 PM well we freed up some cash w/the hold 30 thing
woozle 12/19/02 12:12 PM yes, but it won't be there in time to pay for
orders which have to go out today
Bubba 12/19/02 12:12 PM ?
woozle 12/19/02 12:13 PM why "?"?
woozle 12/19/02 12:13 PM ZR and LB both have to go out today or we're
going to miss a lot of xmasses
Bubba 12/19/02 12:13 PM rt
Bubba 12/19/02 12:14 PM I'm just saying that if we don't have to have
the MT cash gone for 30 days then it's in the
account to pay for the ZR and LB or at least a
big chunk of the total
woozle 12/19/02 12:15 PM That will only help if they don't make us pay
in advance...
woozle 12/19/02 12:15 PM We've got about $200 in the acct
Bubba 12/19/02 12:15 PM oh
Bubba 12/19/02 12:15 PM then how were we gonna pay for a $450 MT
order?
woozle 12/19/02 12:16 PM when the cc deposits come in, of course
woozle 12/19/02 12:16 PM Even if I had already run the cards, the $
still wouldn't be there for another 3-5 days
Bubba 12/19/02 12:16 PM rt
Bubba 12/19/02 12:17 PM did you add the newest LB order to the list?
Bubba 12/19/02 12:18 PM D5364 - 31795 XX
woozle 12/19/02 12:18 PM I'm not adding anything that came in after I
posted the "deadline has passed" msg yesterday
Bubba 12/19/02 12:18 PM why not?
Bubba 12/19/02 12:19 PM since we haven't placed the order
Bubba 12/19/02 12:19 PM think it's only one or two
woozle 12/19/02 12:19 PM because it's a crunch as it is; don't have
time to open another batch, run another card,
etc etc. etc
Bubba 12/19/02 12:21 PM whatever

woozle 12/19/02 5:13 PM so... LB? ZR? Please ignore the rising levels
of anxiety you may be detecting; they are
simply due to imminent nervous collapse and
are perfectly harmless unless invoked.

ZR BOB-1208-XX and BOB-4002 Contrast Stitch
Hat - COD Hold 30 and note in Memo and on the
back of the check

woozle 12/19/02 5:35 PM If we'd ordered this morning like we planned
to last night, it should have arrived tomorrow
Bubba 12/19/02 5:36 PM wouldn't have happened like that anyway due to
the back log
Bubba 12/19/02 5:36 PM I asked LB
Bubba 12/19/02 5:36 PM didn't ask ZR
woozle 12/19/02 5:37 PM well, I'll just have to make a list of the
ones that were anxious about xmas delivery,
send them out overnight, and everyone else
will just be a few days late.
woozle 12/19/02 5:37 PM I don't think we have enough cash in the bank
to pay for overnight for all the LB & ZR
orders.
Bubba 12/19/02 5:38 PM to customers?
woozle 12/19/02 5:38 PM (LB approx total cost: $1,041.25)
woozle 12/19/02 5:38 PM right, to customers. Monday is the 23rd.
Bubba 12/19/02 5:38 PM rt
Bubba 12/19/02 5:39 PM whale shit
woozle 12/19/02 5:44 PM was ZR overnight to me?
Bubba 12/19/02 5:45 PM y
Bubba 12/19/02 5:45 PM as is LB
woozle 12/19/02 5:45 PM so it's probly Sat., possibly Mon. depending
on how far behind they are
Bubba 12/19/02 5:46 PM both said out tomorrow and w/Sat Delivery.
It's up to the PO
woozle 12/19/02 5:46 PM ok... I thought you said you asked LB but not
ZR -- what did you not ask LB?
Bubba 12/19/02 5:48 PM I asked LB if it would've gotten out today
anyway had I ordered it in the a.m. just to
see if I screwed up and was told no
Bubba 12/19/02 5:48 PM didn't ask that of ZR
woozle 12/19/02 5:48 PM ah.
woozle 12/19/02 5:48 PM I thought I had understood that order in
morning = out in afternoon
woozle 12/19/02 5:49 PM so it's order in morning = out next day, order
in afternoon = out in 2 days?
Bubba 12/19/02 5:49 PM this is Christmas is all.
Bubba 12/19/02 5:50 PM usually order in morning and out that
afternoon if the que isn't too full
woozle 12/19/02 5:50 PM We should have been planning these dates when
I was down there the other week, instead of
working on the CD site.
woozle 12/19/02 5:51 PM As it is, here's what I see: LB will attempt
to debit our card for ~$1000. It will be
declined. Several days later, the money will
be there, and we will ask them to re-debit;
the package will arrive here a few days after
xmas, we will ship the stuff and it will
arrive 5-10 days after xmas. People will be
pissed, but life will go on.
Bubba 12/19/02 5:52 PM we had plenty of time to do that anyway and we
didn't. let's not shift blame to that, cuz it
really didn't affect us talking about dates
woozle 12/19/02 5:53 PM I'm still trying to understand how it got to
be this late that we were placing the orders,
but I have no real answers yet.
Bubba 12/19/02 5:54 PM me too neither
woozle 12/19/02 8:27 PM ok, I'm working out some options here.
woozle 12/19/02 8:27 PM We do have enough to place _part_ of the LB
order.
woozle 12/19/02 8:29 PM What I'd like to do is work out which of our
LB orders are the most crucial -- that would
be (1) anyone who put in the instructions
saying they need it by xmas, (2) anyone who
emailed anxiously about their order in the
interim, (3) any others that seem to deserve
special consideration.
woozle 12/19/02 8:30 PM I've compiled a list of all the LB orders, and
I'm going thru the DB making a note of the
status of each one. Then we'll prioritize,
then I can email everyone whose order is going
to be late.
woozle 12/19/02 8:31 PM And then tomorrow morning, if you could call
LB and cancel our existing order (I want to
give customers the opportunities to cancel
their orders if they're going to be late) and
replace it with the hi-prio list worked out
thusly.
Bubba 12/19/02 8:32 PM if we know the money is there borrow against
it and ship them all
woozle 12/19/02 8:32 PM It isn't. The debit would probably be refused,
and could cost us hundreds in NSFs if it
wasn't
woozle 12/19/02 8:33 PM It will be in a few days, but not in time.
Unless LB can give us maybe a 5-day extension
before they debit -- which you said they
won't.
woozle 12/19/02 8:33 PM (Not without prior arrangement, anyhow.)
Bubba 12/19/02 8:33 PM so all this merch and no $ to cover costs
after shipping??
woozle 12/19/02 8:33 PM You know how it works.
woozle 12/19/02 8:34 PM The money comes in after we ship, or around
the time we ship if I pre-debit.
Bubba 12/19/02 8:34 PM rt and is there going to be more than we need
to buy the stuff and ship it?
woozle 12/19/02 8:34 PM If we had 3 more days, I could run the cards
and tell LB to hold the order until the funds
appeared in the queue -- but that would be
roughly the 24th.
woozle 12/19/02 8:35 PM "is there going to be more than we need" --?
Bubba 12/19/02 8:35 PM costs + shipping = what we need
Bubba 12/19/02 8:35 PM total batch = more than we need?
Bubba 12/19/02 8:36 PM $
woozle 12/19/02 8:36 PM I won't know how it balances out until we've
shipped everything.
woozle 12/19/02 8:36 PM There may be some overnights which may
decimate our profit margin.
woozle 12/19/02 8:37 PM Under ordinary circumstances, we'd be in good
shape; the LB restock by itself should show a
profit of $500-$1000.
Bubba 12/19/02 8:37 PM how many pkgs to go out, and an average # of
shirts X shipping method =
Bubba 12/19/02 8:37 PM ?
woozle 12/19/02 8:37 PM But if we have to ship stuff much more
xpensivly than usual, and a bunch of people
cancel cuz their stuff isn't going to be on
time, then we could be dead in the water.
woozle 12/19/02 8:38 PM LB is 50 orders
Bubba 12/19/02 8:39 PM rt so we have to ship it or cancel them all
cuz if we make a little money on shipping only
some and still need to overnight the
difference is just the # of pkgs doing the
dance
woozle 12/19/02 8:39 PM not following
woozle 12/19/02 8:39 PM I think if we ship the ones to customers who
are the most anxious, the majority of the rest
of the customers may forgive us
Bubba 12/19/02 8:39 PM if we can do it w/20 then 60 is the same only
more
woozle 12/19/02 8:40 PM not understanding yr point
Bubba 12/19/02 8:40 PM we still need to overnight pkgs to customers
woozle 12/19/02 8:40 PM we don't have the cash to pay for all $1000 of
the LB restock
Bubba 12/19/02 8:40 PM to guarantee arrival
woozle 12/19/02 8:40 PM hmm
woozle 12/19/02 8:41 PM forgot about the LB restock arriving
saturday... that does kinda cramp things.
Bubba 12/19/02 8:41 PM so if we have to do it for 20 and it's worth
doing then 60 is too cuz it's just more and
the little we make off the extra 40 helps the
big picture
woozle 12/19/02 8:42 PM If it were going to arrive earlyish, I could
have the packing slips printed for a reduced
restock (20) and perhaps get it to the PO
before 12:30... or, heck, we could use UPS or
something... they're maybe open later... more
expensive, but not as expensive as overnight
woozle 12/19/02 8:42 PM very iffy either way, tho
woozle 12/19/02 8:43 PM 60 would be worth doing if we could afford it,
but LB won't send us 60
woozle 12/19/02 8:43 PM because they'll do the debit and the charge
will be declined
woozle 12/19/02 8:43 PM (revision: 60 _might_ be worth doing if.)
Bubba 12/19/02 8:43 PM I'll call them in the morning and get it
arranged
woozle 12/19/02 8:43 PM get what arranged?
woozle 12/19/02 8:45 PM backinnabit
woozle 12/19/02 8:45 PM (do you mean the original plan I suggested?)
Bubba 12/19/02 8:45 PM see if I can get a ___day hold
Bubba 12/19/02 8:45 PM & we have to plan for a NO
woozle 12/19/02 8:46 PM that would be immensely helpful if it were
possible, tho that still leaves the
overnighting issue... guess I'll have to do
the math on how much that will cost.
bakinnabit
Bubba 12/19/02 8:46 PM k
woozle 12/19/02 9:08 PM back... when you talk to LB, you might mention
the power outage in NCand how that kind of
threw our already turbulent shipping
operations into a state of thorough
out-of-whackness. (I'm given to understand the
ice storm made national news.)
Bubba 12/19/02 9:09 PM I'm just gonna be Oliver and do the twist
Bubba 12/19/02 9:10 PM you know, the guy that puts the olive in the
martini's
woozle 12/19/02 9:10 PM I'm not sure what the Dickens you're referring
to, but you certainly could tell a Tale of
(operations in) Two Cities.
Bubba 12/19/02 9:16 PM will use the because
Bubba 12/19/02 9:17 PM "Because" is scientifically proven to work
94-95% of the time
woozle 12/19/02 9:18 PM it works because
woozle 12/19/02 9:18 PM and we know this because
Bubba 12/19/02 9:18 PM start listening to advertising for because
woozle 12/19/02 9:20 PM is N08 still on top of (or near) the piano?
Bubba 12/19/02 9:21 PM will look
woozle 12/19/02 9:21 PM if it is, pull LB-11423-2X/TD White-Tailed
Deer
woozle 12/19/02 9:22 PM and I will create a pkg... that will fill one
order.
Bubba 12/19/02 9:22 PM k
