Hi Barrett,
I'll speak to our mail manager first thing tomorrow morning (I can't do anything myself with just the Fed-Ex website and tracking number, alas), though I don't believe he checked the box that required the package be signed for, so I'm not sure why Fed-Ex didn't just leave it at the door in the first place. Is the address you gave us not a traditional apartment/building? As a back-up (this sounds kinda DIY, I realize, but it worked for me on a previous occasion), I'd leave a note on the front door, wherever the Fed-Ex driver will end up, authorizing that the package be left at the door (signed, etc.)
But I'll talk to our mail room head honcho in the AM, as discussed!

Stephen-
I'm trying to get FedEx to just leave the envelope at the door in the morning but I'm not sure how to authorize that from here. Would it be possible for this to be done from your end before morning?

I'm not sure that I can get them to divert the package to Dallas...I'd have to ask our mail room manager on Monday, but I think it'd be difficult. Your best bet would be to go to the local Fed-Ex facility to pick it up in person (though I imagine it closes soon). If that doesn't work, I'll confer with our mail room on Monday, and we can cancel the check if necessary, though if you could have your friend pick it up at some point and return it to us, our accounting department always wants to have canceled checks returned to be destroyed, etc...

Hi Barrett,
But of course! Here's the tracking number...
797669639670
It looks like they tried to deliver yesterday but no one was available to receive the package (there's a "customer not available or business closed" warning posted). I apologize for the inconvenience, though I'm surprised the Fed-Ex delivery man didn't leave a tag saying they'd stopped by, etc. They'll try to deliver again on Monday, and they're keeping it at the local facility for now...let me know if there's anything I can do to help out!
Stephen

Hey there Barrett,
I just tracked the package on Fed-Exs website, and its currently in Texas, on a truck out for delivery, so I suspect the check will arrive today! Let me know if you have any more questions, and have a great afternoon.
Cheers,
Stephen

Howdy-
Would you guys be able to do a direct deposit, or will you need to send a check? Let me know when they're ready to do it and I'll provide details.
