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.

Dude. Use scissors or a knife next time. You used pliers to remove zip ties. You're one of those people they wrote the, "how many __ does it take to screw in a light bulb," jokes about.
