Tell me you have never worked a scale without telling me.
One could change the packaging after every use of the scale and it wouldn't impact a thing after the scale is reset with the new packaging.
When I worked for a Loblaws company I did meat seafood and deli.
Step 1 was always take the tray and tare it out on the scale so this wouldnβt happen.
The fact this was widespread and they just say it was the new packaging does not stand up to me. You could sell the meat on lead bricks and the first step of taring would negate it.
Mmm delicious lead brick meat.
Just like ma used to make! Before the lead got to her...
You could say that lead to her downfall?
The only other materials I thought of were uranium and tungsten. Maybe tungsten would make a better plate.
Uranium would be the best, delicious and it glows in the dark!
Showerthought: Someone somewhere probably attempted to sell "meat that cooks while it's shipped!" with radioactive plates/packaging.
Early 20th century snakeoil salesmen were wild when it came to radioactive shit.
I think that's what she's claiming, that the scales weren't re-zeroed to the new packaging.
That is what she is trying to claim while not understanding how scales work. If this was an error with resetting the scale it would self correct the next day when the scale is turned on again and not have been left unresolved for an "undisclosed amount of time".
