[QUOTE="hondo, post: 165217, member: 8661"] I don't find it unethical. The cust. is paying for the guaranteed service commitment time. Time-in-transit can be just as or more important than just getting pkg.there. I once sent an envelope NDA on a thursday, because I needed it there on friday. Anytime friday would have been fine, and cust. ctr. clerk actually tried to downsell me on next day saver (PM) delivery. It was only 130 miles away & I figured it would actually travel by ground either way but tracking showed it actually did fly (probably ended up travelling 300-350 miles, but hey, showed up exactly 10:30 AM):w00t: . Of course my insider knowledge that envelopes are much better suited for our air dock than our regular sort also played a big role in my decision. [/QUOTE]
