Don't use a rock, use 10lb of glitter.
Nah. That would piss off the mailroom employees, but they don't control who gets sent mail. The weight costing money does hurt the people who make the marketing decisions, though.
That's a fair observation, but I assume they're trained to deal with suspicious packages safely, and that stuff will get transfered throughout the whole building and make everyone's lives that bit more 'special'. It'll still hit the bottom line too.
nah doesnt just piss them off... it now confettis the mailroom which guarantees a janitors employment. this is how you generate low skill labor jobs! its a win win.
But they also work for the bad company, so my sympathy is limited. Not super limited, else I wouldn't point out that they're inevitably hourly employees, and a long day cleaning glitter creates an annoying backlog that creates even more overtime.
Punishing the worker for working for spammers, but also putting money in their pocket at the cost of the people making choices.
Biggest issue is the cost of glitter. Easier to get dirt or rocks.
So credit card issuers are bad now?
There's too much to keep track of these days.
They're mostly banks, right? Were they ever good?
"these days"? I take it you weren't paying attention during the whole "explorative credit" thing? We had to make the consumer financial protection bureau to, amongst other things, make them be a little less shitty? The bureau they've been desperately trying to get dismantled because it moderately limits their profits?
Have they ever been better than "kinda bad" at best?
Anyway, I didn't specifically decry credit issuers. I implied that spammers are shitty, which I stand by and is far from a new sentiment.
Would take a little bit of doing, but rig the box flaps to a platform inside the box, then pour all the glitter on that, so that opening the box raises the platform and dumps all the glitter.
Rather than a platform, I've been wondering if you could rig it so opening the box opens some holes on the bottom, so they think they dodged the worst of it, pick it up to dispose of it and get a desk full from underneath.
Rock, and 5000 live cockroaches
Steady on Satan, they're only a credit card company! They're bad, but not that bad!
