    Dropped off a card overseas and a woman named Ebony was really nice. The other woman who was next to her? Taller. Plain rude. Not how people want to be greeted especially if you don’t know the type of day people are having.

    So rude and unprofessional shouldn’t work with the public if your attitude sucks.

    Went for walk-in passport hours and didn’t have high expectations but Ebony was absolutely amazing. She was so helpful and made a usually stressful process feel quick and easy!
