I have
suggested to shipping that we permanently place the McKinney address on both shipping
containers so that in the event they are separated, we stand a chance of
getting the other ½ back. If
we can not in fact put the two ½’s together, then we may need to investigate
always shipping them as 2 separate containers and preparing 2 separate shipping
documents. Larry J. Dix Vice President of Operations Global Election Systems -----Original

the units together – FED EX forbid me from doing so????? I guess strapping material
is the way to go. John -----Original
Message----- I
just had a conversation with our shipping department in regards to the shipping
and return of the sales demo displays.
As most of you are aware we have a new display, that when the 2 pieces
are packaged properly, they are designed to strapped together and shipped as
one. There are velcro straps
and buckles attached to the pieces for this purpose. If needed you can also run
a band of strapping tape around the 2 pieces to insure they are not separated. We
have one occasion where 1/2 of the booth was misplaced by Fed Ex Ground. It
took over a month and repeated phone calls to get it back. We have again
received 1/2 of a booth - Hopefully the other half will be delivered tomorrow.
If everyone involved with shipping the booths will make an effort to strap the
2 pieces together we can avoid this problem from now on. It
is vitally important to strap both pieces of the booth together for
shipping. Please take
responsibility in making sure that the display is packaged correctly. Thanks
for every ones help. Larry J. Dix Vice President of
