Mishandled Mail Question

So I just received my substitute teaching credential in the mail. On the front of the envelope, in big letters, it says

Of course, it was put into my mailbox folded in half with a crease. I have yet to open the envelope. What can I do about this? I'm quite pissed.

Nothing. Unless it was sent insured, you're pretty much stuck.

Shoot the mailman.

Call your post office and bitch to the manager.

Grammaticus · 06-12-2006, 12:10 AM

dola,

Then call the organization that certifies and bitch to them, telling them they should use fed ex or UPS. All the bitching will make you feel better and may cause someone else to bitch at the mail carrier. Then you will really get your mail screwed with and the cycle starts all over again. So maybe Eaglesfan27 has the best solution.

Have them send you a substitute substitue teaching credential.

What is this "credential" you speak of. I was a substitute teacher in Oklahoma the year after I graduated from high school...at my old high school. All I had to do was have take a three hour course to start making my $45 a day.

Yikes! In my neck of the woods, substitute teachers start on AUS$200 a day - which is about US$150.

Jerry: I've been trying to jam stuff in the box, like you told me, but sometimes it says, "Photographs - Do not bend."

Newman: "Do not bend?" (laughs) Just 'crease, crumple, cram'; you'll do fine.

I wonder why Oklahoma has among the worst public schools in the country?

EDIT: As for what you can do Vince, you can file a complaint with your post office, which will be officially written down and placed in his file, never to be considered again. They cannot actually unbend the envelope.
