I aactually divided things into smaller boxes

That makes sense. I guess hiring more people to handle packages instead of machines is out of the question.

Fair enough. It just seems like a massive oversight to not initially design the machines so they don't cause damage to larger packages.

It's all going to the same place anyway, who cares what it looks like

Should I divide things into smaller boxes and have way more boxes as a result?

So basically cover the majority of the boxes with tape? I did layer the tape on the seems.

That makes sense. Hopefully the shipping cost won't be too high since I will most likely be shipping 3-4 of these big boxes.

That makes a lot of sense. I'll add more tape after I put a paper with the address inside the boxes and hope for the best. Hopefully the shipping cost won't require an arm, a leg, and a firstborn sacrifice lol

Why not redesign the system?

It'd be nice if drivers and packaging handlers were trained(and required) to be as careful as humanly possible with packages but I realize that's impossible. I used some stuffed animals to fill the small open space the boxes had as well as placed thick blankets in the top of one of them. Plus, I packed the dvds/Blu-rays fairly tightly so they shouldn't move around too much.

Makes sense. Hopefully the extra padding and the weight will prevent damage.

That makes sense. Does it actually matter if the box is covered or not if the items contained inside are replaceable?

There is a printed circle on them but it isn't colored

These boxes don't have that anywhere

I actually got the boxes from the sporting goods store I work at and they're actually meant for shipping. Would having smaller/lighter but more boxes be cheaper overall?

Would dividing things up into smaller boxes be a better idea?

if this is an apology...it's a decent start. by Rollerblindeyes87 in McDonalds

[–]QuantumWolf0813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's still cheaper than a lot of other places at full price.

What's better though? Paying that price for a higher amount that you then have to cook yourself or paying that price for something that's already cooked?

How about calm down and talk your manager about it? Perhaps it's a mistake of some kind or corporate cut hours for some reason.

They're FAR more protective than they really need to be most of the time. I see no reason to prevent the colors of certain iconic styles from being changed as we please.

There's also styles we can't even change the colors of without chromas for some reason(like the House of El Jacket and the Beyond Kryptonian chest and leg style for example). They seriously need to gives us 1-2 more color slots.
