I had zip ties cut off of my tool box flying SEA-GEG. They had the moxey to take the zip ties I had in the box for the return trip out and use them to reseal it. I had to get more for the trip home.

When I got back to SEA (on AS) I found that they had sent my tools on a earlier flight (QX) than the one I took (GEG-SEA is about hourly) I found the box with several thousand in equipment laying by itself on the QX belt with the zip ties cut off again.
