    Louise was unbelievably helpful. The addresses are tricky in Kotzebue and being from Colorado I had a hard time understanding, but she patiently explained the rules (several times) until I understood and she saved the package for my nephew from being returned. She's an angel.

    Alison and Steve are both breaths of fresh air. Waiting in line isn't as long as before. The lunch hours have changed, though. They need to change the sign on the wall.

    Like most Post Office's very busy and long lines. They have staffing issues so they're often randomly closed. Getting packages in though is like Christmas since you can't go to Best Buy, Target, Walmart, etc this is where you get in all the good stuff.
