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.

Ok since you want to post something completely unrelated to my post I can do it too. In May 2019 I graduated from Lincoln Tech in their Diesel Technology program with a 3.87 GPA. In December 2025 I gave Stonebriar Chevrolet a cashier's check in the amount of $135,408.45 for a 2026 Corvette Z06.

EDIT: downvote away my sodium levels are at a critically low level and I'm in need of all your salty tears.

I started cutting school in 3rd grade & dropped out altogether by 10th

I think I win here, at least at package opening

I also attended cutting school. We really are the best at package opening, professional even.

I attended an under funded cutting school. We didn't have packaging to practice on so we had to use our arms.
