So far my husband's trip to Chicago has been a bust

When he landed there this afternoon he was informed by his office that they had given the delivery company the wrong address, so the subcontractors never received what they needed to do the install tonight. He flew out there and the company paid for a round-trip flight, a car rental, a hotel room, and his food/drink/etc. all for nothing so far. He said that, if the glass gets delivered early enough tomorrow, he will stay for another night to supervise the installation. I hope that it works out that way. I'd hate for this whole thing to be a giant waste of time and money for everyone involved. If the delivery doesn't happen, he will take the flight home tomorrow afternoon.

His company picks up the whole tab, right?

It is a shame that some business deals go bad.

it was a screwup on HIS office's part, not a bad business deal.
