Even the empire couldn't overcome bureaucracy and robo-calls
Robots doing robocalls to other robots...
"John I had to leave a family wedding to get this shipment for you, Now I'm being told to leave it at the dang port? I can't stay here for a week, I am needed somewhere else. You need to get another person for the delivery.
"So, you know the Casinos on Bespin, where you can win a starship? That technically counts as work expenses. Which would be billed to the CLIENT."
Despite "evil bureaucracy" being a redundant statement, the bureaucracies of evil organizations are often the worst.
I was waiting for John to finally get an Admiral on the phone.
Admiral Ackbar: Yes? John? Shield Generator for DS II? Sure, sure I can sign the addendum. I *am* an Admiral after all.... now when and *where* is this Shield Generator supposed to ship to?
Ackbar: hehehe....
Hmm... Maybe that's how the rebellion got word of the DS II having no shields and it's location...
@@PupSentinelhey then what about Manny Bothhans and his sacrifice?
Teddybear Island 😂
I think at that point, I would send Nappa over to handle Imperial Logistics once and for all. In his own unique way.
Yeah but then they'd write complaints, and the score on yelp will go down, ugh, such a hassle.
Send Tartarus. He handles the Judiciary Branch of the Primordial Council of the Multiverse, and is the physical embodiment of Law and Justice (in some way, shape or form). No one is going to argue with a fundamental force of the multiverse
Do you remember the scene in ep5 where Chewee is trying to get the pieces of C3P0? The trash pigs played keep away with the head. That's what Nappa would run into. When you are that far emersed in the bureaucratic cogs, any change from the monotony becomes a game.
Ship in a crap load of Mirkeys; they'll 'handle' the problem, and get nice and fattened up for Nappa at the same time~
Even Nappa isn't dumb enough to deal with that.
John forgot to call the commander at the second death star to tell him to sign off on the "repair" of the "OMFGWTF Eye Conduit" once the generator was delivered.
Even the empire can't escape red tape. Could you imagine the DMV run by the empire...I shutter to think.
I am having serious customer service trauma flashbacks now. Good lord, logistics and warehouse people are just nightmares
"Okay, GHT, I'm just following up on our 'previous' interaction. I need to inform you that the call is being recorded for quality assurance purposes, and then confirm that IL, and you specifically, are accepting responsibility for delaying shipment of the crucial security device for the Emperor's priority project. Can I confirm what call center you're in, so I can help Lord Vader properly direct the disciplinary decimation? Your name is FR31GHT, right?"
I've always had the impression that they made a conscious decision to focus on getting the giant laser working first so they could plink the Rebel cruisers when they turned up, as the shield generator on the Sanctuary Moon was good enough in the meantime.
Should have just told Imperial Logistics to contact Vader or Palpatine
I would've assumed the shield generator would have been delivered anyway, in a sort of DIY setup. 😂
Been there. Finding workarounds to people who refuse to do workarounds are my specialty. It is so great when someone agrees to help you outright or tells you how to 'help' yourself. Those are the best workers and are truly what saves most companies.
Hero support side of this: Yeah the shipment is delayed, attack now. XD
John, John... It's fine, buddy...
IT'S A TRAP!
5:02 at this point i'll just forge his signature lol
This is why you don't put droids in bureaucracy.
3:15 God damn droids!!!
Imp Logistics is like the USPS. Your package will arrive later than scheduled, but it's still on the way. Then you submit the missing mail report. Your package is found 20 minutes later, and still takes 3 days to get about an hour down the road.
Vader really should have listened to Villian support more often
Geez, just watching this is triggering my phone phobia.
The U.S. Department of Ordinance in space.
The US Department of just about anything! lol
@@DOffio yeah, but the Department of Ordinance is infamous, even amongst the countless bureaucratic offices of the US, for being purely an inconvenience.
The Empire shouldn't have cowed its low level schlubs to the point of being scared to death of their betters. It's nice to know that they have been trained to apologize for the frustration they have caused.
Now we need an epilogue after the second Death Star was destroyed. 😏 😏 😏
What makes this so much funnier is that I've never seen any paper or written documents in any Star Wars material 😆 🤣
If you finally got it in transport just ship it anyway and let them store it. Tell them it's already underway and you couldn't stop it. Prevents having to set up shipment again the set up process.
Bright side, Imperial Logistics is your clients company so you are LIABILITY FREE! And more than willing to ship the products direct for a premium I assume. Your clients choice to cheap out on the price voids their insurance.
Insurance? I thought the Empire "Sith Insured". Like many companies... if too much goes wrong just declare Bankruptcy! And start Emp. II ABC DBA The Empire.
Should have sent it to Legends Admiral Thrawn. He never takes a break
At this point in time he'd be somewhere in the BF unknown regions so I doubt he could help
That's brilliant. I hate those calls.
This is specifically why my organization has more than one person who can make approvals and not all of the bosses can be out at the same time.
Hilarious - but the shields in the OG Star Wars DON'T work like the ones in Star Trek. You HAVE to have the shield generator installed on a planetary body in order to have a forcefield strong enough to repel firepower from a fleet of capital ships. Deflector Screens won't do the trick and even the (second) Death Star isn't big enough to have that kind of generator. This is why rebel fightercraft like the A-Wings can slip through the defenses of even a Super-class Star Destroyer and blow up their Deflector Shields.
I mean GHT is right about one thing, you simply can't assume what an admiral would want, they tend to have their heads up their own behind so far, they could see the their teeth from the other side. I assume this is why Vader force chockes so many of them and why Doloros has a permanent resting B-face in regards to the impireal protocols?
I just wonder why John didn't call thrawn, he may would have called DS2 a waste of time, but he would have signed off, even if you send a simple mail, probably the same day even, that's how organised he usually seems to be.
Is that Johns personal therapist, or a therapist supplied by Villanueva support?
good question
As someone who has done shipping/receiving....i can totally empathize with both sides of this exchange.
Having a 2hrs phone tree, the Galactic Empire is truly evil
Mr support, dose another great vid
This was hilarious! 😂 😂😂😂😅😅😅😅
Is it me or did the hold recording sound like Claptrap?
Shipper/Receiver here… this… this is waaaay too close to home. Lmfao 🤣
Can’t wait! 🛻
Too bad you couldn't use THX1138 as the droid's number. lol
Existential Threats: You do realize that this was NOT an accident. Vader always intended to take over. He now knows he has a son to leave it to. Lol.
I'm begging you. Batman vs homelander with Superman power's, the how Platinum kryptonite.
Damn droids
Was that hold voice Claptrap??
😂😂😂
