Usually?
You are a delivery worker. You will get fired if you aren't fast enough. You will also be fired if you trigger a tilt indicator.
You're on your final warning, and replacement tilt stickers cost $3 on ebay.
A delivery worker won't be hacking e-mails - but if they know hardly anyone checks the tilt sensor serial numbers anyway...

The solution is obviously to find a forger, put them on retainer, and swap out the indicators as needed so that you can keep a $15/hr warehouse job.
I have no idea how much such a service would cost (perhaps your life is much more exciting than mine), but I'd imagine skilled forgers don't come cheap, as they could easily find something more profitable to do than faking tilt indicators.
Tilting packages doesn’t seem particularly fun or lucrative. It’s not even a particularly effective form of sabotage: maybe you’ll increase the damaged-in-shipment claims by a bit, but maybe not.
If you’re already forging and breaking into wear houses, surely you could find something more enjoyable, profitable, or vicious to do than provide post-hoc cover to a rough shipper.
