MLAARE -Counting

Damaged boxes can be annoying.
For one, if its a product and its all bent and contorted...customers are less likely to buy it.
Because they probably think there is something wrong/broken with it.

Damaged boxes that hold the products can be annoying because if its bent all weird then it could have broken the product inside, it could be more difficult to open or to carry about without everything falling to pieces. Basically...its a box you don't try to pick up or risk items falling on your toes.

Then there are the creature boxes.
Those really shouldn't be damaged.
At all.

Because if they are....
That usually means that creatures can escape.
Holes can be chewed through and exploited.
Meaning animals loose.

Today.
It wasn't animals.
But bugs.
Yah. More bugs.
We got in another shipment of bugs today.
And the cricket boxes were damaged.
Squished.

Which is bad.
because the contorted shapes...
Left room for crickets to wiggle their way out.
Bye bye Money.

So to try and figure out how many crickets we lost from the damage boxes.
I counted the crickets before I added in new crickets.
Then counted again to see what the difference was.

Ah. It harkens back to the days when Reth was still my manager. As she would have us do that so we'd know if they actually sent what they said they sent us, instead of just assuming that they did.

Talk about a headache though.
Imagine counting 3,000 crickets.
Then adding in another 3,000
And trying to see if the mass horde of moving floor added up to 6,000.
Ow.
My head.
It doesn't help that the crickets didn't smell that great in the first place.
so I spent like 10 minutes breathing in bad smell as I tried to count.

To find....
The numbers were basically accurate.
We hadn't really lost anything in the shipments besides the dead. O.o

So weird.
