Question by 360ID: Does your post office give you an acceptance scan for online postage?

Without a acceptance scan you have no way to prove you delivered a package to the post office and the post office is not responsible for anything they loose that they don’t acknowledge receipt of.
Paypal will not accept the fact that the post office is at fault when a buyer claims he never received a package when the seller has no proof of mailing.
Even though the post office claims to give the same the same service for online delivery confirmation that they do for over the counter purchase of the same service. They don’t unless you make a big deal out of it and contact consumer affairs to complain.

No, confirmations issued from an online source are never to be scanned individually, never.

All of the PC Postage vendors do, however, issue a SCAN Form if you request one at the time that you finish a label session. This single form cosolidates all of your label numbers into one barcode that is required to be scanned when you present it.

If a buyer claims not to have received your package, then files a dispute with Paypal, Paypal is going to ask you for the delivery information. You seem to have the misconception that if you can show that you actually sent the item to the buyer, that you will be in the clear. Sorry to tell you that the only thing that Paypal cares about is that you have some sort of online viewable proof of DELIVERY. Paypal could not care less that you shipped something. Without the delivery scan, you lose.

In the end, you can complain all you want to Consumer Affairs, your postmaster, or the Pope, but your PO is following regulations but not scanning your online postage packages.

Here is the thing, the service you are complaining is called “Delivery Confirmation”. There is nothing int he name to imply that anything would be done at acceptance. Buying DC at the retail counter has to be scanned to get the electronic record in to our system. Electronic DC is in the system as soon as you purchase the label

Question by MacKenzie: Increase chance of being accepted into the Peace Corps?

I am 14 and in my freshman year of high school. I really want to join the Peace Corps either directly after high school (which I know is highly unlikely), or after college. Are there any programs/activities I can join now to make my resume stand out more, that i can do after school or over the summer? I want to start getting experience now, instead of later. Any ideas?

It’s not highly unlikely to join out of high school. It is impossible.

Peace Corps volunteers don’t dig ditches and do manual labor as instructed. They provide technical job advice to foreign nationals who can be 40, 50 years old. An 18-year-old, no matter how mature, is not ready for that.

That’s why 90 percent of volunteers have their four-year degree or more. (The rest of have decades of relevant job experience or a combination of education/relevant work.) It is also why the average age of a PCV is 27 or 28.

It does not matter one iota what you major in. Study what you want to do AFTER Peace Corps. The degree is what you need, not a specific degree.

You have lots of time to prepare. The best way to stand out is to show a dedication to community service, since that’s what Peace Corps is. It doesn’t have to be some big thing, just consistent. A year of tutoring two hours a week makes a bigger impact that going on a one-time mission trip.

You can also study French, Portuguese or Spanish. There is no language requirement, but since those are second languages in many countries (or some version of them, anyway), having one of those under your belt might help you be more competitive.

You can also go to the Peace Corps site and enter “competitive candidate” in the search box. A helpful page will pop up.

Get the book So You Want to Join the Peace Corps – What to Know Before You Go. It’s an excellent resource.

There are also hundreds, if not thousands, of blogs online. If you want my blog address, email me directly.

Happy researching.
