Circus Circus
Today was the last busy day before the Memorial Day holiday. This is because the fastest way the company ships is 2 day shipping and a shipment leaving today would arrive at its destination Friday, the last business day before the holiday. There was a situation today where an order was going to circus circus , a hotel in Las Vegas. The hotel is set up like a circus with a big tent and carnival games inside. They get most of their toys straight from the factories in China so there is no middleman like Classic Toy so they get the toys really cheap. But, for variety they get some from Classic Toy. There were supposed to be 128 pieces of the Rasta Banana going to Circus Circus, but the warehouse in LA only had 96 available as 32 were going to a small, local Mexican fair. Since Circus Circus is the much bigger and more profitable customer they diverted the 32 bananas from the Mexican fair to Circus Circus. They lose a small customer, but prevent disappointing a larger one.
