    I'd call it a 1/4 sheet of paper folded in half, and then it's put through a hand laminator (poorly, mine already started peeling apart).

    The paper and laminate were cut by hand; the guy used a pair of scissors right there in front of me. It's not even square.
    Some sheriff's offices will use a copy machine to reduce the license first, then laminate it so it fits in a card slot in your wallet. They give you both; the paper one (unlaminated) and the reduced, laminated one.

    Yeah, this definitely isn't that. He pushed a piece of paper towards me that seemed to have the license in triplicate on it. I signed all 3, he cut them apart, folded one in half, laminated, and poof, that's what I've got.

    Here's an interesting thought.....how does this sheriff know who it calling in? The way he's doing it...I could make up 2 names, a male and a female, then call in myself as the male, and my wife calls as the female...

    Yeah, that's a pretty idiotic requirement all the way around.

    And even if THEY call your refs, who would put down someone who would not say what a honest, trustworthy, sober, drug-free, dog-petting, non-wife-abusing angel they are????

    If you pass the PICS, just slap a LTCF in your hand and be done with it

    Caller ID, possibly. You have to put down name, address, phone for the refs.

    I agree. Pick 2 names out of phone book, and call from a pay phone and say it's your office number. Just seems like it reduces some of the reason for doing a reference check, which is pretty useless anyway.
