Let's all do our part to help little boulders travel
Glaciers take millions of years to deposit boulders across the land.
Humans: "we can do better."
If there's one thing we're good at, it's moving rocks around
Are they an invasive species?
They can't reproduce, should be fine.
Their reproduction cycle is weird but they multiply. Oddly enough all it takes is a couple of sold hits with a hammer and you'll have a bunch of boulers instead of just one. They'll be smaller but there will be more of them.

Don't use a rock, use 10lb of glitter.
Nah. That would piss off the mailroom employees, but they don't control who gets sent mail. The weight costing money does hurt the people who make the marketing decisions, though.
nah doesnt just piss them off... it now confettis the mailroom which guarantees a janitors employment. this is how you generate low skill labor jobs! its a win win.
That's a fair observation, but I assume they're trained to deal with suspicious packages safely, and that stuff will get transfered throughout the whole building and make everyone's lives that bit more 'special'. It'll still hit the bottom line too.
But they also work for the bad company, so my sympathy is limited. Not super limited, else I wouldn't point out that they're inevitably hourly employees, and a long day cleaning glitter creates an annoying backlog that creates even more overtime.
Punishing the worker for working for spammers, but also putting money in their pocket at the cost of the people making choices.
Biggest issue is the cost of glitter. Easier to get dirt or rocks.
So credit card issuers are bad now?
There's too much to keep track of these days.
They're mostly banks, right? Were they ever good?
Would take a little bit of doing, but rig the box flaps to a platform inside the box, then pour all the glitter on that, so that opening the box raises the platform and dumps all the glitter.
Rather than a platform, I've been wondering if you could rig it so opening the box opens some holes on the bottom, so they think they dodged the worst of it, pick it up to dispose of it and get a desk full from underneath.

I have long fantasized about doing this exact same thing, especially to MAGA-types who somehow got my address and are mailing me requests for donations. Someone in those groups as well as THE SALVATION ARMY have discovered that those postage guaranteed reply envelopes cost money and prompt this response. So now all that stuff requires a stamp if you want to reply. I hope that's cut down on their fundraising efforts.
What is wrong with the salvation army? Sometimes go in there looking for board games when we check if any of the charity shops have any games beyond 50 versions of monopoly and trivia pursuit.
- In 1998, the Salvation Army refused to comply with San Francisco’s laws regarding domestic-partner benefits, costing it $3.5 million in city contracts and leading to the closure of certain programs for homeless people and the elderly.
- In 2001, the organization tried to strike a deal with the Bush administration, which would have allowed religious charities that receive federal funding to circumvent local ordinances against anti-LGBTQ discrimination. (The organization also threatened to stop all of its New York City operations in 2004.)
- In 2012, a Salvation Army branch in Vermont was accused of firing a case worker after learning she was bisexual.
- Also in 2012, Salvation Army spokesperson George Hood said the organization views same-sex relationships as sinful. “A relationship between same-sex individuals is a personal choice that people have the right to make,” Hood said at the time. “But from a church viewpoint, we see that going against the will of God.”

They are anti-LGBT. I don't have a source handy for you at the moment so encourage you to search it up.
I've bought quite a few items of clothing of the "wrong gender" from them...
the christian holiness movement offshoot organized in actual army ranks under red banners emblazoned with their literal motto "blood and fire"? idk but i could pick out a few things that seem... off
Don't forget the literal slavery at their rehab centers!
