Good thing I don't mail anything.

[Future Boy]

Yeah, all I mail are packages.

[bardy]

wow they make those?

I am actually kind of nervous about going to the post office to mail this package tomorrow... its like a thick stack of papers. Do they have envelopes and stuff there already and can they tell me how much postage I will need.

When stamp prices go up, they have stamps in the amount of the difference so you can use your old stamps.

And there are all kinds of priority mail envelopes that are free, and they weigh ti for you and tell you much it is.

Yes, the packages are free. Take your papers in, find the package that suits your needs, seal it up and address it and then take it to the counter where they will weight in/tell you the price.

[bardy]

Yeah I used to have an anxiety disorder and I still have some residual irrational fears of going new places and things like that.

[bardy]

well I mean not FEAR, I'll still go to the place but I just get nervous the first time.

[Future Boy]

Ok. I take the erm face back then.

Good thing I just use the firm's postage meter thing.

Doesn't Virginia Tech have an on-campus post office that's always pretty empty and less "fearful" than most?

Most college post offices are jokes.

i was a gopher in a law office in high school and 50% of the mail i put through was the secretary's personal letters they snuck in with the legit mail.
