Then if I'm not around, it's in a fairly well-guarded building rather than on my doorstep. (Solves the "delivery at the beginning of a three-week vacation" problem also.) If yoour company objects, just point out how much time you're saving instead of having to take it off to pick up the package at UPS. P.S. The Post Office also leaves notes that such-and-such has to be picked up; I can't remember if that's only Certified items or includes packages also. Evelyn C. Leeper ...ihnp4!mtgzz!ecl
