Hey guys,
So, curious.. and not mad at them at all, but I like to keep on top of things.
Ordered the new top like middle of April, right? Let's say they got it the Friday, logged it the following week, whatever, right? So, as we approached the summer, wife planning camps for the kids, people planning all the holiday vacations etc...I find myself trying to make sure I can be off when the top arrives.. heh
So, last month, around the 20th, I email asking if we were still on schedule for June time-frame, so the wife can plan a trip to see the grandparents. (she usually takes a couple weekends and shuffles kids to the grandparents then goes and spends a week with them .. whatever.. but needed to plan around that as I tend to do the driving)
No answer, so I call a few days later and "We were going to call you".. I get it, they are super nice so not a problem, but wife is on me to nail some dates down
They tell me they are going to start it "week after next". It will take a few days to build, so I am thinking, "okay..I can totally plan around that".. let's say it ships like.. 2 fridays later, after the building starts. That puts it as shipping around the 15th. (that gives a whole two weeks, not a few days, to actually start it, right? I am easy.. I can plan that.
Well, started thinking... not going to hit the July 4th weekend as I still have to install that thing, so.. I email asking about how long of a window is the shipping. I am not asking if or when etc, just now need to factor in my co-workers taking the July 4th time off and me not being able to be home during the day.
All this, not a huge issue, it will be here when it will be here, but...still no reply.
Am I being too pushy if I call and ask for an update? I mean, call me crazy but I can email like crazy.. I get it.. I am on a PC 10 hours a day... hazards of being a DBA.. lol.. but I do not want to tick someone off by going, "hey.. I emailed, did not hear back, so called"... what's the deal?"
Would not say that.. lol.. but waiting on the email reply... annoying. gotta make sure they do not wait and ship it during the July 4th time that my co-worker is out of town. Was planning on it being here this week or next, but with no response, it could push out to the holiday and I have to plan for that.
Thoughts?
