I think most people come in unprepared or unaware of what they need to do to get done what they want to get done at the post office. Most of the wait was people not knowing what they’re doing, fixing it in the back and then thinking they can go to the front of the line when they fixed their errors. Stop them from going back to the front and it’d go much more smoothly. The staff was fine. Not the most enthusiastic bunch but what can you expect. It’s the post office. The customers were the painful part. Not the employees.

I don’t if they just lazy for not want to do money orders or they don’t sale the money order in this location. But every time and different hour the I go and trying to get a money order “the person who take care of the money order is on lunch 1-2 hour pass by I come again and still the same answer the person is on lunch. Also bad communication the line is long and they don’t say anything about there’s no money order available l. You try to walk up to the person and ask they tell you to get in line ridiculous! This post office need to do better.

Incredibly inefficient. I waited in line for 45 minutes to pick up a package while the lady at the desk cycled through the same three people who couldn’t get their paper work together.
