No such thing as "vacation" when you own a business
Can't go on "vacation" unless I tie up all these loose ends. If I knew there was a printing issue, I would not have pushed an Open World Press bundle on Sunday night.
I could have notified the customer of the issue sooner giving him more time to shop for a gift for his friends (which several of these bundles were for).
I should have gotten an email or a phone call INSTANTLY considering I've given them my cell phone number and specifically asked both Doug and/or Hal to call me ASAP, at least on Friday. I could have gotten something underway to fix the problem. I didn't just send one email or just made one phone call. I've been on this issue since Thursday, making multiple pleas to Mrs. Herring on the phone and via emails.
I have seriously failed this customer. I REALLY hate failing. I'll need to find an adequate substitute to the bundles and then 2 day them to the customers on Monday, costing ME money, to make up the time difference and get them to their destinations by Christmas.
It would have been amazing what a simple phone call to me could have prevented.
I'm not upset about the printer issue. S**T happens. Giving me a phone call was completely within their ability and control, however.
Ignoring retailers and customers is a WotC type thing to do. Mystic Eye Games isn't large enough (IMHO) to be acting this way. This is the root of my disappointment. I really thought they were different.
