    I was taught as a child to open plain envelopes first. Checks, credit cards, and other important stuff are put in boring envelopes.

    I worked for a CC company and when we mailed checks to customers we told them “This check will come in a plain white envelope.” And the amount of people who thank me for letting them know because they might have thrown it away.

      Who the hell just throws mail away without knowing what it is first? And if it’s not clear from the outside, then without opening it first?
