Unfortunately I believe by now you might have bags of fish soup ... Well fish gruel would be more accurate. Do these things get labeled as live product? If so I believe that the shipping company should step up there policy a bit as that's a little ridiculous!

I'm sure with labor shortages GH is just looking for bodies... You could probably write whatever you want on the box and the employees wouldn't care.

Same with air shipment. I know people who have lost fish orders and more and more luggage seems to go missing. No one cares. I've seen planes being unloaded at the airport and they literally were tossing all the cardboard boxes onto the cart. Some would miss... some would roll of the other side.

What a journey those fish have made from the ocean, and then to die like that.
