Silly question but I am buying something online that I need shipped to me at work and I am unsure how to do this.
Would it be sent to:
Me
c/o company name
Company address
Or would it be sent to:
Company name
c/o Me
Company address
I guess overall it doesn't matter but I want to know in case it does.
Thanks

If you put your name first, then it should get to you.
How big is the company you work at? Does it have a mailroom?
How is it being sent? USPS, FEDEX, UPS?

It has a shipping/receiving department and handles about 30 people. The package is coming through UPS.

Company Name

Address it you first care of company second line and be sure to alert the receiving department of your impending package through UPS. They will be sure to get it to you if notified ahead of time.

Wondergirl gets enough of her own packages as it is.

Eh, it's a brake caliper for a Toyota... I guess if you really want it...

No one has EVER given me one of THOSE before! I'm sure I'll LOVE it! (But now you've spoiled the surprise... )

I have some wolf spiders already, so I don't want any of those. Tuffy, my tarantula, died, so one of those would be cool. Or do you have a suggestion? I don't want one that will try to get at my carpenter ants.

No spider wants ants really... ants actually kill most spiders by ganging up on them.
You really had a tarantula? That's cool... I currently have 3... don't know if you saw the pics in the pets thread.
