Holy holiday delivery Batman

I work for a women's clothing catalog and retail company. I work for the catalog side of the business. We have promised our customers their packages as long as they order by 2pm 12/23/08. I'm not sure who's bright idea this was but I can guarantee they do not work anywhere near the distribution center and have ZERO idea what a feat this actually is.
We had close to 90,000 units to package today alone. 90,000!!! Tomorrow we'll add more, bust our asses, work late, deal with higher up management running around like Chicken Little and barking random orders just to make themselves feel important. But we will get all the packages out on time. We always do. It's really going to be challenging tomorrow.
I think I'm feeling a stomach flu setting in!
