Have you ever received a present delivered to you at work? I've never had anybody order something for me and had it sent to work, and as long as DH and I work at the same company, I doubt that I will.

Oh yeah. I get things delivered here a lot. Either gifts for my husband or things for me.

Yes! I prefer that to having packages left on my doorstep.

Just got flowers from my hubby--so nice! It has been a while. The wildest thing I ever had delivered to me at work was a "Slapshot Gram" also from my husband, for my birthday. The Washington Capitals mascot came in person to deliver birthday greetings, sign autographs, and generally be goofy in the halls of my buttoned-up law firm. It was a lot of fun. He's a nearly 7-foot tall fuzzy eagle wearing a hockey uniform!

I had flowers delivered to me once when I was teaching. Fifth graders, who were into having crushes at that point, were so impressed.

I've gotten flowers from DH, and also the occasional Jimmy John's...mmm.
Baahaha, the Slapshot Gram sounds hillarious.
ETA: The Jimmy John's also comes from DH (as a surprise)...I've had pleeeenty of my own food I've ordered delivered at work...sorry.

At my first job, I never did but DH worked there too. At my second job, it was a group home so I couldn't have anything delivered to me there. DH sent me flowers today though and it's kind of like they were delivered to me at work since I'm a SAHM. : )

DH had flowers delivered today... It was a total surprise, he never sends anything to work.

Flowers, edible arrangements and most of my online shopping gets delivered to my office. Since being on mat leave twice I've accidentally shipped my amazon order to my office since it's my default. My boss is always great about holding the package until I have time to pick it up

I've only ever had flowers, and that was from an ex boyfriend. Not going to lie I kind of expected flowers today from DH and am a little sad about not getting them (or anything) for Valentine's Day...sigh.

Yep, flowers from my husband or I will send myself stuff from amazon! LOL

We belong to a cellar club and have 2 bottles of wine shipped four times a year. I have it delivered to my office since I have to sign for it.
I've gotten flowers a few times, other than that nadda!

I got flowers today and a few times before.
I don't want to get personal packages here because I have no doubt someone else would open them, probably accidentally. I'm a department head and order tons of stuff that gets sent in "my name" but other people are in charge of receiving the mail.

Ive had flowers delivered once. I bacily told him to so it doesn't count. I've had tons of stuff sent to dh at work. Food, flowers, desserts. This is the first year I haven't sent him anything for vday. Its usually a heart shaped pizza. I didn't get anything either so it works out

Nope! Our dept's "address" is just a mail stop on campus, so it's really hard to get inter-departmental mail, never mind something delivered from outside!!

For people who have things delivered to them at work... do the delivery people walk right up to your desk? Or do they have to stop at reception?
At my office I would have to go down to the reception desk and bring it up to my floor.

I used to order stuff online and would have it shipped to my old job since it was such a small office. Now that I work for such a big company, I don't. DH has sent me flowers before.

I've had my replacement phone delivered to my office when I was working. They require signatures and there was no way we'd be home to sign for it.
DH has also sent flowers to me.

I had this one contractor who sent me flowers at work all the time; it was so sweet!
DH and I worked together up until DS was born so he'd sometimes leave presents on my desk but he delivered them himself.

@sunny: It's just my boss and I and our desks are both right by the door. So they usually just walk up to my desk and I sign for everything.
