Hi,
LSC has been out of multipasses and frequent buyer cards/
stamp-passes for over 2 months now. We've lost hundreds of dollars in lost
sales of multipasses, and find ourselves apologizing every single show for
being out of both multipasses and frequent buyer cards. People used to
brush it off; but after so long, now they're becoming genuinely annoyed as
we are forced to stamp and sign scrap pieces of paper (rather sketchy).
My understanding at the beginning of term was that you required a
certain window of time, and that whomever at LSC was responsible had
neglected to request these print jobs far enough in advance to get them by
the beginning of term. A couple weeks into term, I, a subdirector on the
Night committee, was told that we'd get them in another couple weeks--and
passed this on to customers. Now perhaps 6 weeks later, none of us have any
clue when we'll get fresh cards for what has become an urgent shortage. I'd
tried asking a couple times at meetings and got an embarrassed silence.
Culpability isn't an issue; who at LSC should have requested the job
weeks earlier, and who at APO should have printed the job weeks earlier as
well, doesn't matter that much.
Who at APO *can* help us get fresh copies printed off?
I'm even happy to volunteer my time to help print them, if you can
show me how to work the presses or could use a hand in operating them.
It's become an urgent issue; whatever to get these printed in days, a
week, if at all possible?
thanks,
-Bernard Arnest
