A very kind and cheerful woman who quickly helped me get done what I needed. And a lollipop bowl too.

Lady with the grey hair has the worst attitude and is rude and sarcastic I'd rather drive farther to another location than deal with this lady again

Today 04/02/24, I was dropping off a package and paying for shipping. Sonya was extremely unkind and condescending towards me.
I accidentally hit a wrong button that said I had hazardous materials in my package. She said, "What are the hazardous materials? You just hit the button that said Yes." I said, "Oh I'm sorry, I meant to hit No."
Sonya scoffed and said, "That's why it's important to read."
I apologized again and explained, "I'm sorry, I have a newborn baby and I'm running off 3hrs of sleep." Sonya did not take this chance to apologize for her callused and nasty comment, but remained silent for the rest of the transaction.
I proceeded to fight back tears until I left the post office, where I broke down sobbing in my car. I am a working mom, newly postpartum, and doing the best I can to get through a day. All I did was accidentally hit the wrong button because I was exhausted from my new baby's lack of sleep, and I was met with an incredibly rude and hurtful response for a simple, easy-to-fix mistake.
It takes no effort to be kind and compassionate, and it saddens me that Sonya thinks it's acceptable to make nasty comments to people who simply hit a wrong button.
Sonya, if you read this, I sincerely hope that you reconsider how you talk to people. You don't know what anyone is going through, and a nasty comment such as the one you gave me, can be the breaking point for someone who is already going through a lot in their personal life. It's genuinely not hard to be nice to those around you.
I am disappointed that the Granite Bay Post Office, which is a place that so many community members go to regularly, chooses to employ such a heartless individual to interact with members of the community.
