I sent off my renewal 2 weeks before the ASIC was due to expire, took them 4 weeks to send me a fresh one. I just walked around with the expired one for a while. What was I suppose to do?
Also I carry mine in my pocket with the prepared excuse of 'the clip broke earlier today'. I'm done with the stupid belt clip/lanyard snag point.
I've never been ASIC 'ramped' before. Kinda looking forward to the day it happens, just to see what makes the useless pigs tick.
