	Logistics operates mainly at the beginning and end of con. We pick up the truck from the rental place around 3pm on Wednesday, load everything in the storage unit into it, and park it at Thomas' house overnight. Setup starts as soon as the venue will let us, typically early Thursday in recent years. We unload the truck as quickly as possible, then it goes to the arcade department for their load-in. The table vendor generally delivers the eight foot tables for the merchants in early afternoon and we have to unload their truck, but sometimes they can't deliver and we have to pick the tables up with the truck. When arcade gets back with the truck full of cabinets we may have to help them unload. Once everything is unloaded Logistics is responsible for moving everything to where it needs to go and setting up the artist alley tables. Once that's done we don't have a lot of work during con apart from resetting rooms from time to time.		Logistics operates mainly at the beginning and end of con.
