Mercedes, I have a quick question. What's going on with my purchase request for a new laptop? I thought it would be processed by now. Mercedes Burch [9:03 A.M.]
Hi, Alex. Didn't you get my e-mail? The IT department is recommending a different model. Once you approve the change, we can finish processing the request. Alex Collins [9:07 A.M.]
Oh, I see. Well, it looks like the model they're recommending is heavier than what I requested. But I often have to carry my laptop around construction sites, so having a lightweight model is important. Mercedes Burch [9:08 A.M.]
In that case, you can oppose the change. Just write a short paragraph explaining the situation, and I'l append it to the request. Alex Collins [9:08 A.M.]
I'm glad to hear that that's an option. I'll do that. Thanks Question 154. At 9:03 AM., what does Ms. Burch imply when she writes, “Didn't you get my e-mail"?

NOTICE FOR RESIDENTS
OF SANDLING APARTMENTS
Over the past few months, the volume of tenants’ packages being delivered to the apartment management office has grown beyond our capacity to handle them. The result has been an excessive amount of work for our employees, reduced space in our facility, and several incidents of packages being lost. Therefore, the office will no longer accept delivery of packages for tenants from Monday, October 1. Please take advantage of this ample advance notice to make other arrangements for any packages that will likely arrive on or after that date. These could be taking delivery at the door of your building or a third location like a post office box or your workplace.
