It may have been left in the reception, if the office is customer facing such as a hotel, or council offices.

However if there was a public access area you think there would be some CCTV.

Yea, I added some more onto my post, marlie!


There will be CCTV somewhere and potentially enough to implicate someone. I would be more concerned about being stolen from rather than claiming against Argos (unless of course the OP is trying it on which we'll never be able to rule out)

You've kinda admitted that it was delivered to your WORK so as such I can't really see why it has gone from a secure (ie your work) location to a public location.

It's possible the OP works in a public facing job. Library, shop, cafe etc.

the employee(s) who have shown what would be construed as misconduct (or even gross misconduct)?

I think it would be a very harsh employer who would consider it (gross) misconduct in this situation when it isn't really a work related issue, save for the fact it was delivered there. Unless of course, the employee who signed for it has stolen it.

I was going to say some workplaces don't like you getting mail sent to the workplace, and consider it own risk.

Plus, is it really the receptionists/admins job to look after other peoples post? Maybe they put it somewhere hidden but a thief still stole it, such as on a desk in sight of a customer (aka they didnt just leave it on the service desk or on a customer chair, as that would look unprofessional and odd)

Anyway, whatever happened its a police matter. If you want you item, contact the police.
