I was approved for my Veteran ID card on March 21 of this year. It has
been chugging it's way through the system I guess. I got an Email 2
weeks ago saying it was being printed and today I got one saying it
was in the mail, expect to see it in 2-3 weeks but don't call them
asking them about it for 24 days.
My bank sold me a new credit card and it was in my mailbox 2 days
later.



You weren't aware the same fellas who approve suppressor applications up
at the ATF also approve vet ID cards? Shame on you.

I got one for you. A wireless phone system was broken into, and someone
ordered three top of the line iPhones, at nearly $1500 each, and had
them shipped to me. Apparently, the crooks call the shipper and arrange
for the phones to be delivered to an address different from that of the
alleged purchaser. Well, hell, the three phones were delivered here,
before they could be diverted, and the shipper left them here without a
signature. Took me three hours to sort of get the mess straightened out.
They sent me a return package but with no prepaid return label. Told
them I was going to leave the phones on the nearest corner. Occurred to
me I could return the phones by simply dropping the box off at a local
convenience shipper and tell them to "Return to Sender." They gave me a
receipt.

Ahh, corporations. Blech.


You come down on corporations but say nothing about the 'crooks' who precipitated the mess. Weird,
huh?
