I'm so mad they closed the post office at 660 J St was a much better location. I went today to the R Street location and they have been out of money orders for three days. Waste of a trip. Then I had to ride my bike home and take the light rail to Royal Oaks location, which is not that accessible. I hope they get this location running better bc now it's the only one left in the grid. Staff was nice but I'd rather they have all the services available.
