Re: "Waiting Room"
Well today was much anticipated and a little unsettling.
I was very lucky on both counts I believe.
It only took from 08/02/10 – 10/02/10 from mailing all of my documents,
(certified mail, in a moisture resistant, bubble pack, high security document mailer)
when the postal clerk ask me if I wanted to insure it, I actually laughed.
How could you secure so much personal information, every identifier from DOB, TDL, SSN, Military service, photos, fingerprints,,, I simply said “No Ma’am, there is no amount of money that can cover the contents.”
I took great care and consideration to follow all the rules and insure that the information that the State needed to process my CHL was complete and safely delivered to the requesting authority.
I was horribly disappointed when my CHL with my NAME, ADDRESS, DOB, TDL#, PHOTO and Signature arrived in my mailbox in an envelope that was barely sealed with a small piece of tape (gum on the envelope not even fastened), simply placed in a single piece of card stock, allowing anyone who would handle it or attempt to extract it from a mailbox to readily identify it from the return address and the feel of the envelope as some type of ID.
Come on, State of Texas; do not let your great wisdom outsmart your common sense. Before you attempt to flame me or call me over sensitive, I spent many years after the MP Corps, investigating and initiating prosecution of identity theft and fraud, well before it became the norm, which it is now a days.
My request to the State is simple. Show the same consideration and forethought that most of us do in this process.
SEAL YOUR ENVELOP AND PAD IT WITH A “WRAP AROUND” LETTER maybe saying
“Thank you for your patience, we are proud to enable you to exercise your 2nd amendment rights, not only protecting yourself, but ensuring that the good citizens of Texas may live their lives in peace also, as our founding father’s intended.” (TO HELP DISGUISE THE FACT THAT THERE IS A SMALL ID CARD CONTAINED.)
I am simply pleased that during the trip from Austin to the Piney Woods, that my license and information didn’t fall out of an unsecured envelope and into the wrong hands.
May the Constitution of The United States of America, be followed and defended.
