[QUOTE="25yrvet, post: 331793, member: 4677"] My problem is on the delivery side. I had a shipper from the north part of the state ship 10 boxes that weighed 19 lbs a piece to a plant in our extended center's area. I looked at each label & they all said 10 lbs! I was ticked, and ready to call my mgt team, but realized they are overwhelmed and just trying to keep their heads above water and would probably say something like, "Uh, yea, weee'll geet right on itt". So I did something that I regret and will never do again---because if the shipper complained it would be me getting the wrong type of attention. I called the shipper--their phone # was on the label, & talked to the shipping clerk. This is what I said, "Hello Jim (?), this is joey with ups down here in raton. Hey, you guys sent out 10 boxes to the plant down here and they felt a little heavy, so we weighed 'em and they all weighed 19lbs instead of the 10lbs that was marked on the labels, Could you guys check out your scale and make sure it's still accurate? Thanks." [/QUOTE]
