OP here, this actually got published ... anyway, to clarify, my team tends to telecommute on Fridays (including me) so I asked to ensure I could (as a courtesy). He said no, and only a couple people were in the office. But, I did talk to him and he thought it was Thursday and that the request was therefore odd. He apologized for making me come in to the office and we are all good!

OP here. 1) I looked for a company phone number but could not find one (all I discovered was it was a medical supplies company). 2) I called UPS several times. I called immediately both times. First time it happened, I asked them to come pick it up. They said they would need to charge me for said pickup (even though it wasn't my package). They said if I dropped it off, there would be no charge, so I dropped it off and I told them to return to sender. That's when it came back the next day. I called to complain again and all the guy had to say was "yeah someone didn't do their job. This actually happens a lot, not the first time, won't be the last time". I ended up dropping it off again and chewed them out. Funny thing was the SECOND TIME it was delivered, I was home. I recognized the dang box right away and tried to catch the delivery man but he was already racing off to the next delivery. Wasn't really a huge deal, more less funny...try to do the right thing and the stupid box comes right back like some sort of curse...but I haven't gotten it back again and hopefully the old lady gets her medical supplies soon :)

OP here, so I talked to the company owner directly and he actually informed me that he wanted to train me to be the next vice-president of the company, but the current vice president insisted to see how I do as a general manager first. Our current vice-president is 77 years old and does not want anyone in his position. I have to get along with the old greaser knowing he will put me on the wrong path every chance he gets.
