If you're a pet store employee, probably the only thing worse than opening up a shipment of live tropical fish to find them dead is opening up a shipment of live tropical fish to find a human body intended for a research facility in a neighboring town. That's what happened at a Pets Plus in Philadelphia yesterday, and US Airways says the mixup was caused by a "verbal miscommunication between a delivery driver and the cargo representative" and that they're deeply sorry.
