Growing up with my father being a postal carrier I heard two things
over and over:
1. "Fragile" means don't throw the package over 10 feet. (an obvious
exaggeration I hope)
2. The Post Office doesn't care what name is on the envelope they
deliver by address.
Now, in real life your carrier may be nice enough to bring your mail
when misaddressed but they aren't required to...it's the address that
counts not the name.
Finally, build every package like it's carrying a raw egg.
