Went in to ship out my wedding invitations. The envelopes were a little oversized and needed additional postage. The woman working just said she didn’t have the postage and would have to do it manually (with a very bad attitude). She then started printing out SHIPPING LABLES and putting them on the envelopes. A lot of thought, time, and money went into making these invitations look nice, and I would have so much rather her have said something along the lines of “these are oversized and need additional postage, here are your options”, instead of slapping 3” x 1” barcoded shipping labels onto the custom printed envelopes. My wedding invitations look like Amazon packages now. Thanks.

Amanda did an amazing job helping me out with redelivery of a package that somehow didn't have my complete address on it and was at risk of being returned to sender. During the busiest time of the year, she helped relieve so much stress by helping me over the phone!! I know USPS workers can be incredibly stressed and underappreciated so I wanted to highlight a super positive experience I had. Thank you so much!!

So you dont allow people to access their po boxes on sundays!?! That is crazy. Other locations are at least open to give people access to usps priority mailers and their po boxes.

Absolutely rude staff. Cant bother to stock the forms so you wait in line to get the form then get told to "have a good day" and get to the back of the line.
One of the few publicly funded operations that should be replaced
