I have a package of coral coming in Saturday. The shipper has asked me whether or not I want a cold pack. Whats you thoughts?

 

[ralph atl]

yes

 

[acroholic]

yes

 

[dawgface]

What about if he is dropping off at the lastest possible time for next day and I am doing pick up at fedEx location?

 

[mvm]

Still yes.

 

[ralph atl]

Why ask?

 

[elfloyd]

Yes... Gets awful hot in the delivery trucks.

Tell the shipper what the day and night temperature has been. That should answer their question.

Definitely YES.

I know..


he asks a question... gets 4 YES answers.. then wants to tell you why he thinks it should be NO...


Why even ask for advice if you're going to ignore it..

Maybe I'm reading this wrong but unfortunately I don't see any other reason to take it. I asked a questions because I want the correct answer giving the specific situation that I outlined.
For the record I was asking a genuine question that I felt may change the dynamics or responses (possibly). Not to argue a point I had no position on in the first place....which is why I asked the questions to begin with.
For those of you that responded without condescending assumptions, thank you! I do apologize for trying to reiterate my question just in case something was over looked or assumed.

I was just being sarcastic...

I apologize if it was taken the wrong way..

in all seriousness though.. I promise that your package (without a coldpack) would easily get up over 95*...

No worries... honestly when I first read it I was thinking you must of just been having a bad day. You have always been helpfull with questions in the past. Then after reading it couple more times I decided to send that reply and almost regretted it immediately.
Forum posts can so easily be taken out of context, I would do well to remember that.
Thank you for responding.
