If you expect baggage handlers to be gentle with your stuff I assume you’re the same kind of person that ships fragile shit wrapped in a single layer of newspaper and then gets mad when it arrives broken. UPS does not get your package from New York to LA in 4 days flat by placing it on a silk pillow and handling it with white cotton gloves. Baggage handlers don’t load a 747 in 15 minutes by gently laying down your bags like they’re putting a baby in a crib.

These guys have a job to do and they have to do it quickly. Pack your shit accordingly.
