(the day i was off) but nope it will be here tomorrow on monday the 5th.. and ofcourse i have to work.. but its almost a 400 dollar Monitor.. and all my friends and everyone has to work... so im thinking is it a good idea just to take the day off... because i rether take the day off and not have it stolen on my front porch.. or should i just go to work and hope nobody steals it? lol.

odds of it getting stolen off your front porch are very low..

i just think your using an excuse to tell yourself to take the day off so you can enjoy it.

Call UPS and ask them to have the driver hold on to it for you. Call them when you get off work and ask the location of the driver and go meet him somewhere. Or, wait for him to get done with his route and drive to the UPS location and pick it up from there.

same thig just happened to me. Fedex wants a signature but ill be at work.

My area is pretty safe so im hoping a note will do,we shall see

Pick it up at the hub or call in?

I chose picking it up with the todays economy. This could be the last straw to get you fired and someone else needs your job.
