I think Spike just drives a Fedex van so he can park next to the door at the mall.

I think he doesn't participate because he's in Michigan. Little bit of a drive for him.

Yes I drive for FedEx Home Delivery.
Here is my old van.

Worked there for 2.5 years, left for a year and now I am back, to stay.
I love this job, it is fun, I get to listen to the radio all day, CarTalk every Sat, talk on the phone to anybody I want all day, talk to my wife for about 3 hours every single day of the week.
I get to be outside and work on my skin cancer, meet people, and bring smiles to people faces, everybody loves the FedEx man.
I love dogs and I get to meet lots of them too.
You want to chat, call me, after 10am EST (Bob and Tom ends at 10) and before 2pm, Talk of the Nation on NPR starts at 2, science Friday every Friday, Political Wed's...it's all good.
Between 10 and 2 I listen to CD's and the all request lunch hour on the local rock station.
With Mountain Dew and Zingers I can do 30 stops per hour.
It is the perfect job for somebody with A.D.D.
My attention spam is about as long as the cursor on the PC.

It seems he would have put 2 and 2 together if he read where the package was from LOL

No offense dude, but I've seen your wife, the muddy rover may not have been the only factor in the high five.

They're probably very similar to the ones in Alabama, i.e. do so at your own risk of getting a load of buckshot in the face.

I was watching the local news last night and they said there had ONLY been 36 car jackings in Dallas since Jan 1st 2009......unbelievable! No wonder everyone hasa concealed carry permitaround here.
