more problems with the vendor on a new job. i do share blame on the problems but we also chose this vendor as they are supposed to be looking out for potential problem areas and either making adjustments or recommending adjustments.
they shipped this job late and not prepped as required and agreed to which caused additional delays. now are backs are against the wall with our customer. we already had to cancel their requested ship date.
now its looking like we will need to delay at least another day.
to add to this the vendors is giving us no discount on the items that need to be reworked (i do share blame on those). considering the delays caused by the shipment and the items not being prepped i am expecting them to eat some of this cost if not all of it.
the good thing is that the boss is being cool with me and was even giving me points to push back on the vendor with. i am a bit skeptical about his good nature on this lol i think he might be sincere though.
