That 5am phone call from a warehouse manager in Ohio changed my whole shipping strategy

Used to roll my eyes at people who said a single phone call could change everything about how they run things, lol. But honestly, I had a similar moment when a random vendor called me at 6am about a tracking issue, and it completely flipped my approach to logistics. Now I actually look forward to those early calls because they always reveal something I missed in my spreadsheets.

Wait, wait, wait. Did you just say you look forward to getting phone calls at 6 in the morning? That's insane. I need a solid hour of coffee and staring at a wall before I can even process a simple text, let alone a full conversation about tracking issues. Spreadsheets are bad enough during normal business hours, I can't imagine getting a wake-up call about one. You've got a superhuman level of patience that I definitely do not have.
