I presented this scenario to my class a few weeks ago, which happened when I purchased my new laptop a couple months back… As Tom Petty sang, “The waiting is the hardest part.” But logistics can be funny and sometimes we don’t have to wait as long as we think we have to wait. Below is a snapshot showing the number of hops my package took from China to its destination in the U.S.
My favorite part of this snapshot is how my package travels back in time from Dec. 28 to Dec. 27, which happened after it crossed the international date line.
Kind of fun…
