If your friend took the time to package his generator properly im sure it would have ended up looking better on the delivery end of things... You wrap your 80lb hunk of metal in 1/4 inch of corrugated cardboard and some masking tape and you get what you deserve. As a UPS driver you see this sort of thing all the time and the person who cries loudest about how UPS shitkicked their stuff is the same one who who freaks out when you say you won't pick up their 17" monitor thats crammed into a rotten old box with some old T-shirts and jeans wadded up to protect the screen. Next time you ship something, if you wouldn't feel confident raising it 3 feet high and dropping it to the floor you haven't packed it well enough. Its reality- you don't move 12 million packages a day by having each package placed on a velvet pillow.
