Overnight Prints Needs to Change Their Name

Monday, June 15th, 2009

Ordered biz cards on Tuesday night from a company called overnight prints, paid for extra fast shipping, figuring printed wed/wed night shipped thursday arrive friday, right?  Nope.  I really wanted them by Saturday, they would have done me more good on Saturday.

Called the 24/7 customer service hotline, got a recording and an answering machine. FAIL.  Left a message 3days and they havent called back FAIL AGAIN.

Tweeted at their twitter account, no response.  FAIL SOME MORE.  

Refund my shipping, I wanted them by Saturday, that is the only reason I paid an insane amount on shipping.  

Overnight prints, renamed Over 3 night prints and with an extra lack of customer service!!

 

Update (8/4/09)  Overnight prints refunded my overnight shipping costs, which were more then the total order cost.  It still took a long time for them to get back to me, but at least they made it right in the end.  I have since ordered from them, and I was much more happy with this last order.  I have to say that I’ve always been happy with the quality of their product.

Hiring

Wednesday, June 10th, 2009

I’ve never really hired someone before.  I’ve worked with people, perhaps I’ve even had some input on a job candidate, but I have never hired anyone before.  I’m not exactly hire now, but I am looking to sub contact out some of my web development work on a regular basis.  So I put up a craigslist ad to see what kind of people are out there and available.  In the Santa Fe area I dont think there is a huge selection of developers, but there might be some.  So far I have gotten 3 responses(The ad has been online for about 5hrs)  This should be an interesting adventure.  We’ll see how this turns out.
