I went the other day to send an envelope FED EX and the clerk requested my driver's license (which has never happened).   When she checked it and saw the address was different than the return address on my envelope she asked if i had any other items with that return address on it to prove it's legit.  Well, i didn't as I only use it for occasional deliveries.  Plus the address on my license is old anyway.  I'm not sure if ALL Fed ex locations are doing this but she did say it was a policy change that went into effect this month.  So if you are using a PO box or other return address other than your primary/residential that is on your ID card or D.L. you may consider usps or ups for shipping (especially expedited like one or two day).   

 
.........To update, I heard from a buddy that his Fed Ex location that didn't check for D.L. since my beginning post.  So it may not be all locations, but he also pointed out with that Fed Ex package bomb a while back may be the reason they are now verifying return addresses to be safe.  But, i still don't like the idea of giving my ID for shipping in any circumstance.   Also, he mentioned that he's running into UPS now wanting to check packages to verify nothing dangerous (or WHATEVER) is contained in the box.  So times are changing.....

Check packages? As in opening them?? If so that may very well be the last nail in the coffin.

Brown has already placed a temp policy in place as such.

  1. M @ meepmoopmeep: @drdrizzy13 Texas lost to Florida of all teams, they weren’t heading for the playoffs anyways imo. At least not this year
  2. D @ drdrizzy13: Texas is offically out of the playoffs they didn't make the top 12. I do wish they were in it. They showed up against Texas AM. But there fatal flaw was scheduling Ohio State for their opening. Which would have been great if they won but they are a 3 loss team now.
  3. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah idk about arch I could see him staying with Sark for another year but if he plays rly well in the playoff who knows that is if they get in
  4. D @ drdrizzy13: Man a lot of Saints fan want Arch but I think he said he is playing another year. I would take him probably. But if Texas AM QB comes out or Ohio State's I think you gotta take one if your picking top 2.
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: Is the qb class supposed to be stacked or thin for draft in April I follow college ball but I can’t think right now I think there’s def at least a few high potential qb declaring
  6. D @ drdrizzy13: Right now I believe we pick 2nd. ATM.
  7. D @ drdrizzy13: At first I figured he might be able to do something but our position players suck. We are playing a rookie QB. O-line sucks. It needs to be blown up. I hope we tank for the first pick
  8. L @ Layne_Cobain: Hopefully you guys maybe find a solid qb option in the draft you should end up with a very good pick
  9. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah dude Moore def does not seem like the guy for yall need to clean house
  10. D @ drdrizzy13: I should say our receivers suck
  11. D @ drdrizzy13: AK is hurt. Our receivers hurt and our starting QB went to college for fucking 6 years. If that tells you something. Also he never completed a complete season in college due to injury. We need a new GM and FAST. And surprisingly Kellen Moore's play calling has been TERRIBLE.
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: @drdrizzy13 my boy from way back is a die hard NOLA fan we have some pretty solid back n forth trash talk thru the years haha
  13. D @ drdrizzy13: lol trust me you will. We are the worst team in the league. I think we had like 24 yards of offense in the first half last week or one week. I haven't seen it this bad since before Drew Brees was QB.
  14. L @ Layne_Cobain: @drdrizzy13 we should dude but for that very reason I’m worried lol you guys already got us once! Good luck tho buddy
  15. Professor_ @ Professor_: Good Morning Everyone
  16. K @ Kon1er: Sorry about that folks
  17. D @ drdrizzy13: Yeah the Saints are my home team. I've been watching them since the 80s. It has been some very rough times. Yall should beat the shit out of us next week. lol
  18. Gulp2788 @ Gulp2788: That's not a question for shoutbox @Kon1er
  19. Stims King @ Stims King: email updated in the thread
  20. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain You should be. Ride high all week till the next game. You have the Saints coming up. 8-6 would be awesome.
