I have a friend who used to work in a distribution center of a major courier. He would recant the most hilarious stories of his shipping shenanigans. He and his compatriots were most enamored with packages marked 'fragile'. Warehouse hockey, football and basketball were regular favorites. Drop kicking field goals with the small packages and playing forklift skewer with the larger ones. They took a special delight in 'accidentally' knocking over stacks of computer packages boldly marked fragile. It frankly amazes anything worked after they got a hold of it.
