My wife before her retirement was a Senior Purchaser for a nationally known concern. As such she had frequent contact with all parts of the country. It was interesting how she divided them up when it came to service quality and responsiveness.

NORTHEAST AND EAST: Very efficient; they really knew their stuff, but not very pleasant at all.

MIDWEST: Efficient and pleasant. The best to work with overall and best at meeting timelines.

SOUTH: Very friendly but not very efficient. Lots of dropped balls.

WEST COAST: The most pleasant of all, and pretty efficient, but don't expect ANYTHING to get done after 12:00 noon on Friday.
