[QUOTE="Star B, post: 4772911, member: 61246"] For as much as I bleed red and (what's the color of a direct deposit?) -- I can't fault the company when weather takes out their major hub when overnight shipping is the name of the game. Yes, we can always point and go "WELL, WE SHOULD HAVE A PLAN FOR THIS"... and you're right, we should. It's easy to armchair quarterback and go "Well, why not send it to Indy, Newark, DFW"... well, you have to get airplanes and those pesky crews in the right place. And then you need people to unload, people to sort, etc, etc, etc. Either you can plan properly and always have resources at the ready to take over when the one major hub dies, but then you waste resources ~320 days out of the year, or you take it on the chin for the few days and power through it.
