I have to agree with many of the posts before me about deadlines are deadlines.Things like this happen many times in the real world. Everyday people have to deal with issues like these.
On a side note delaying ship time would be good for my team right now because we have some gears and shafts out to the guys who do our heat treating and depending on shipping and/or the fix it window we may or may not be assembling our transmissions at Pittsburgh
Thank goodness for our practice transmissions. In the end I know the kids on our team are learning a thing or two about logistics and FIRST is all about learning.
