Florists are also human beings

It was 4 AM in and I was sleeping at my home. Suddenly my phone rang. The lady on the other side asked me if we could deliver flowers at Hari Nagar (a small and congested locality in West Delhi) before 8 AM.I was in my sleep but still I replied her that indeed we could deliver at 8 AM at Hari Nagar. Now this lady did not clarified that she wants delivery on that same day. It was only when we reached office at around 9 AM, we saw that flower order. I have been educating flower buyers on many occasions that they should order at least 24 hours in advance. All orders to be delivered early morning are completed one day prior and kept in climate cool fridge.So if you want to send flowers at 8 AM on 2nd December, that order should reach us by 1st December at 8 AM. We florists are also human beings, we also have families and we also need rest.
