she will hear about it forever, but more as a joke than anything else.

one way or another, all will be just fine.

Great attitude I can relate. Things will work out

I suppose for $10K I would probably camp out next to the box waiting for the next pick-up. All will end up fine. At this point not much to do, so relaxing for about 24 hours is the prudent thing to do.

Handing a Rolex off to a friend without your approval or appropriate direction is very far from a lapse of judgement, Seth. You are being very kind but I would really get to the heart of why this happened, people's subconscious' are very strange things, esp in subordinates.

It's all going to work out.

Last time I had a shipping mishap the box magically turned up a week later in a different state. But they did find it.

I completely get where you are coming from.

And possibly im being naive. However, I doubt it highly. I could be wrong. I admit, but I think she's potentially the most loyal person I've got. Just a dope every once in a while.

This was intense! Glad it scanned in. I usually don't bother with a receipt, but I definitely will be in the future after reading this.

Sometimes for a little drama you do not need more than TRF!

I am happy to read that things went well. Honestly, I understand your attitude, but if she knew the content of the package she should have not given it to a friend...
