They're onto me
Labels: Random 2 comments
I seem to be getting a lot of packages in the mail with the words "Inspected by Customs" taped across them.
I'm glad the mail carrier isn't the one that inspects the packages, but some of them make their presence pretty obvious with descriptions such as "silicone massager" or yesterday's lovely package of "Personal lubricant (Water Based)"... And yes, they inspected that one too!
Really? Can't they just say it's lotion? It's no wonder the Fed Ex guy looked at me funny after reading the label. It probably didn't help that I answered the door in my PJ's since he came so early. My PJ's being a really long t-shirt that is long enough to cover the fact that I also had shorts on underneath.
I used to only see the Inspected by Customs label once in a while, but now it has been on about 3/4 of the packages I get - and I get a lot, at least a few a week. I wonder what they are hoping to find? Any of my Canadian readers get this on your packages?

I'm not in Canada but my apartment recieves all of my packages for me and they started asking questions the week I got like 8 packages and I explained to them what goes on. I guess they assume people are shipping naughty things or something.

Hahaha, I personally don't mind. And they had only inspected a very very large order I got from Edenfantasys once. They usually do not check the smaller packages.
