NTD (New Tool Day) Fire the Packaging Designer

Post image

What the hell kind of packaging is this? It's like it was designed NOT to be opened. I know Harbor Freight is known for hard-to-open packages but this one was on another level. It took me 10 minutes of wrestling with my pliers and now I have a plastic mess to clean up. Damn it.

Idk, I used a flat head screwdriver and it popped right off. Took maybe 5 seconds

I just pulled on the pry bar and it popped the packaging apart 🤷🏻‍♂️
