Woman at the counter was zero help.. I get important medication shipped through usps (unfortunately) so I dont have to drive an hour because of my disabilities. The lady said its "sitting in west sacramento " when my end says "departed". my medication usually takes a day to get here because of its importance.. she wouldn't even check the back or look into. Its frustrating to say the least...

Since amazon stopped using ups and started using usps ,I have never been so disappointed in my deliveries. I depend on getting business supplies from Amazon in a timely manner , not anymore! The latest delivery said unable to deliver due to access code not available. We'll I don't know who you where going to give my package to but I have no access code.so stop with the excuses and do your job.

They don't even try to deliver packages on a regular basis. They mark some sort of excuse for it being undeliverable (despite other mail carriers delivering packages the same day), have redelivery requests turned off on the website, and don't pick up the phone ever.
This post office has been a nightmare for the past two-three years. Neighbors mail gets delivered here. Packages left on the ground in inclement weather to get ruined. "Weather delays" on perfect sunny days.
My mail is regularly stuck in limbo with no recourse and no one to contact.
