Can someone tell me why the hell there isnt a "do not bend stupid Mr Postman" sign on the envelope ? icon_lol.gif

My CCNA certificate arrived today, but just like my CCENT, it arrived totally mashed and folded up so it would fit through the letterbox.

God Damn you Mr Postman!!!!!! icon_evil.gif

    Even if they did, it probably wouldn't help. My MS certs have that on the front, but guess what happens to them... icon_evil.gif

    My postman seems to think that the sticker says "Do not fold in half". He clearly has no problem bending it 90+ degrees.
    Treat people as if they were what they ought to be, and you help them become what they are capable of being.

    I use our office as delivery address and we don't even have a post box and they have to ring to come in .. EVERY SINGLE certificate came bend .. unbeliveable ...

    My VCP certificate came nice and straight, but was messed up from vmware - two huge black stripes accross the cert lol .. but vmware didn't have a problem to send me a new one ..

    I have mine shipped at where I work, so they just hand it to our receptionist, instead of jerking it on a small mailbox.

    At least it turned up! There is a news story about a postman in Germany who felt it was too much work to deliver letters after he had a backlog so he just threw them out and hid them at home.

    Sorry to hear that. I wonder if the idoit rang the bell first. If it doesn't fit why dont they leave a collection note to be on the safe side? You can collect it unbent at the depot later.

    Still, you are a CCNA! I must admit I lost my certificates for CCNA and CCNP years ago. On that note if anyone knows a way to get copies from Cisco by all means let me know!
