Don't make fun of my tape job... It got there in one piece without customs going through it too I bet.

Let me explain the tape ...the box needed to be sturdy enought to go through the sorting station here in town.....many times boxes fall apart with normal handling. Did you know that lots of gifts at Christmas come wrapped in Christmas paper with bits of tape and the postage? LMAO they get ripped to shreds just going down a conveyor belt.
And then again....it cuts down on temptation not to steal (going postal in Canada is when a postie steals)and....

You have no idea how harshly they are handled by most of the people there. They sort by throwing them like baseballs into bins from as far away as possible and better yet when they can hit the side of the bin with the package and have all the contents come out.

Yep I use tons of tape.........I used to work at the sorting plant in parcels and I had a great throw too I might add. but I never damaged anything intentinally.
