I am sure some of you have met some very delightful people employed by Canada Customs. I know that I have met a few over the years.
But my special thank you goes out to the package inspectors that just cleared a box that I had shipped in from the USA
I know that they have a job to perform but to do it with no regard for the package or contents is just insane and inexcusable.
So this is my story. I happen to have anther hobby that involves model trains. I quite often watch ebay for old collectable or products that are no longer made.
A few weeks ago I happen to see an ad for some (14) old model buildings up for auction. Well they just happen to be exactly what I am looking for so I put in a bid for all 14 building's.
Bingo I am the winner. So the package is on its way to me. Now don't get me wrong I am expecting customs to open the package and take a look. But this is the point that I believe customs screwed up. One of the buildings had some small bag of very fine imitation gravel and coal. Again No Problem open the bag and take a look. Test it if you want. No Problem
But please don't be so arrogant and stupid to just toss the bags back into the large box without putting a piece of tape over the cut. This was not just one bag it was about 5 of then each weighing about 6oz each a different colour and the grains about the size of table salt. I know they got a job to do but please have some decency and make sure your brain is turned on before you start your shift.
That's it my rant is over.
