Fed Ex Lies

I spent the a large part of today working from home waiting for a Fed Ex delivery. I waited and waited and waited. I was watching the package tracker on-line all day. At 6:45 I decided to run down to the office to see if Fed Ex had dropped off my package there early in the morning and failed to tag my door. My wife and son waited at home while I did this. When I returned,5 minutes later, my wife reported that nobody had come by. I didn't need her to tell me that, though, since the Fed Ex truck couldn't have gone through without me seeing it during that time. However, when I checked the on-line tracker it said that delivery had been attempted and that nobody had been available. I checked saw this at 6:51 and, oddly enough, it said that 6:51 was the time of the attempted delivery and I though "He's right outside! Somehow I must have missed him!" so I looked. He wasn't there. In fact he wasn't anywhere in the neighborhood since in order to get in or out of the are he would have to have driven where I could see him out of my office window. I think the driver just got lazy and didnt feel like finishing his route so he lied and said I wasn't home. He never even went by. If he did go by early in the morning he didn't leave a tag or leave it at the office. The office opens at 9 and the wife didn't leave, today, until 10 so he didn't come "after we left for work but before the office opened." So there was a two hour window in which there was nobody in my apartment today but during that time the office was open and there were no packages left in the door (which is what everyone usually does) and no tags left on the door. I'm considering taking the day off work tomorrow so I can call the dude a liar to his face when he delivers it tomorrow... assuming he delivers it tomorrow. Maybe he just plain kept it.
