That would be Kenny.  Kind of surly sounding, not the best "phone voice,"
but a really nice guy.  Normally he works in Shipping but if the phones go
crazy he jumps in to pick up the slack.

Yes, you didn't call at the best of times. You called as soon as we opened.
(We open at 11 am).  The phones are often jam packed for the first half hour
or forty minutes of the morning. Even longer on Monday mornings. Better to
wait until around noon to call if possible, unless you don't mind holding
for a few minutes.  We don't have one of those computerized put-you-on-hold
recordings, so if there is a backlog of incoming calls, a real person will
put answer but then put you on hold until your turn is up.  Of course, on
the order desk it's toll-free, so it's on our dime.  And there's always the
website as another alternative.
