## Notes

- **Time zone**: each row is the clock at the scanning office, which is in Pakistan or in the destination country, so no zone is given and `timestamp` is `null`.
- **Pickup**: `Receive item at collection point for pick-up` reports `exception`, like other carriers' waiting-at-pickup scans.
