You can consider showing relative timeAfter reading the comment thread on dennislees' answer, it seems like we have a table that's trying to help highlight items that happened recently or is upcomingdo too much.
e.gThere are two items of interest for the user.
- What's the the most recently "delivered" item for each category
- What items are scheduled to be "delivered"
It'll make sense to break this up into 2 separate tables
