72 Business Hours

August 15th, 2007

I just unsubscribed from a pushy seed company’s daily email newsletter.

Really? 72 business hours? There are 8 business hours a day, 40 in a week (good thing they aren’t French). That could take up to 9 business days, which is a minimum of 11 calendar days.

Could be as many as 13, if you catch two weekends upside the head. Sweet.

Now that’s service.

    I’d guess they meant to say “72hrs, counting business days only”.

    Also notice that they say “take affect”, which should be “take effect”.

    sometimes it takes the 1000 monkeys 72 hours to Affect the change. And they only work businss hours (monkey union rules).
