Packing FAIL

Got a call from my dealer yesterday telling me that they had found a spare key for my car. They asked if I would be in the area anytime soon or if they should just mail it to me. Since I won't be up in Irvine in the near future, I asked them to just send it to me.

 

Today I come home and find this:

I guess they ran out of envelopes.

I guess if your key got banged up in an envelope you would more happy?

 

LOL I personally wouldn't mind, specially since it's the third spare key without the remote. I doubt it would have gotten banged up in a regular manila envelope (without padding) on its way from Irvine to San Diego. :lol:

 

edit: At least it was shipped UPS ground. If the system would have allowed it maybe they would have overnighted it? :p

Reminds me of work.

 

You receive a part in a box. You open the box and find that expensive ESD-proof bubble wrapping made for delicate electronic equipment. You open that bubble wrap and you find a large plastic bag. You open that large plastic bag and you find a 1/4"X1/32" spring pin.

...and people want to know why this country is so far in debt.....this is a pretty good reason why! There are others, but this is a start.

And from a well-known computer manufacturer the single paper license key was delivered in a sturdy box. And if there was more than one key there was one box for each.

 

typical of hardware companies that start selling software. the revenue recognition is tied to "shipping product". so the only way to recognize revenue for software is to ship a stupid paper in a box. rare to see anymore but used to be common :lol:
