Show me how to email prescriptions. Many insurance companies require that some medications be filled by specialty pharmacies that deliver by mail. I know because my daughter has to deal with it.

They're not delivered by mail, I assure you. They wouldn't arrive before expiration dates.

Is it possible you've heard of these brand new parcel delivery services called UPS and FedEx?

Not true I get a script delivered by USPS priority mail. You sound like either someone who has no clue what they are talking about, was fired from the post office, or was not hired when applied.

Edit added: ahh I see now you work for fedex. Got it.

I've worked for both FedEx and UPS. Both excel at parcel delivery. USPS not so much.

The USPS is the biggest customer of FedEx spending $2 BILLION annually to hand pkgs to FedEx so they will be successfully delivered.

The US Tax payer just handed the USPS $100 BILLION in the form of the Postal Service Reform Act of 2021. And they still suck at mail delivery.

How much of your tax dollars go to subsidize UPS and FedEx? ZERO!

Have fun paying your taxes.

Were you born stupid or did you suffer some injury that caused it? The VA sends meds through the mail all the time.

I realize you are probably some vet with PTSD or some other debilitating injury that impairs your cognition. You have my sympathies.

But the VA contracts with several pkg delivery companies in addition to USPS. And much of the 'mail' delivery is actually delivered by FedEx.

I get it, you are clearly the person most qualified at picking up boxes from here and putting them there, what with your wealth of knowledge involving moving boxes at both Fedex and UPS, but you're still a complete fucking moron.
