Pastor Gary - having working for a company doing purchasing
for 15 years - unless things in Hawaii are different than the states -
if we place an order on a Saturday - UPS and Fed-Ex won't
make the pick up until the following Monday.
The company shipping the product can get the shipment
ready & even process the shipment in the UPS and Fed-Ex
software (billing it & putting a label on it) - but the truck
won't pick it up until Monday. You can even track it online -
but it will usually only say "Billing info received".
Under those circumstances - order placed on 9/27 (Saturday) -
picked up by truck on 9/29 = 2nd day service of 10/1. They do offer
a "sonic" service where you pay megabucks to ship over the
weekend - but that's not for the faint of heart (or small checkbook).
Just so you don't feel alone - we are located in a non-metropolitan
area & UPS won't provide early a.m. air delivery to us (guaranteed
10:30 a.m. service if you're in the right place.) We have
customers who send us drawings via Next Day Air early a.m. only
to call the next day at 11:00 a.m. to review & get the air burst
in their bubble when we tell them we won't have them until
sometime after lunch.
You are not alone!
If you can't be kind, at least have the decency to be vague.
