This is really weird. I had to order some memory from Crucial and it shipped out Friday (1/18). So I'm at work today and see the FedEX come in with a package for me. I figured it was my Crucial memory but then remembered I had it shipped to my house. I sign for it and he leaves. I open it up and sure enough it's my memory from Crucial. The only thing is that the address on the box and the outside of the FedEX envelpe is my home address. How in the hell did FedEX know to deliver it to my work about 10 miles away from my house? No, I don't know the FedEX guy either.

Maybe when you ordered the memory, that you had a account with them and used the work address instead?

But the FedEX label shows my home address. Along with the little sticker on the Crucial box.

Maybe someone at home or neighbor said something..... If not, then yeah, throw that one in the X-Files...

<< Fedex rocks! >>

Not the guy who delivers to my house. All my packages come requiring my signature and no one else's because I live across the street from a school and I don't trust most of the parents that pick up their kids there. The FedEx guy knocks once and leaves it on the doorstep. I should just bring it inside and complain that I didn't get it.

he probably tried to deliver it at your house... found you weren't there
checked the computer... found alternate address... then brought it there since it was close.
