Wouldn't cha think?
They make money by printing pieces of paper and putting them in FedEx
envelopes. People then send them money. No printing, no money. After
72 hours the paper is useless, so a lost Friday afternoon is lost
money and, much worse, a lost reputation for reliability.
Their incoming internet is on DSL and usually stays up. There's
plenty of windows so they'll still be able to see enough to print.
And the FedEx guy comes anyway.
