    1. Imagine doing that by hand as your job. Yay for robot slaves! Especially the unthinking ones

    2. Yeah, we’ve gotten some IT equipment in packed in that stuff. It’s probably more environmentally friendly than peanuts (which I freaking HATE!) or those air filled bag thingies.

    3. I recently received a package filled with biodegradable packing materials that break down easily when exposed to moisture. It’s a refreshing change from the usual plastic peanuts, and I appreciate that it’s better for the environment. However, I still can’t help but wish there were more widespread use of these alternatives in shipping!

    4. Textron uses those from time to time when shipping electric motors. Great for getting the wood stove started.

      You could make a lot of parrot toys with that! Honestly, kind of jealous 😂 (I just spent over $150 on toys for my parrots that will last approximately 12 seconds).
