John, the head clerk (I think) at the Mystic Post Office was SO helpful to me the first time I had to do a bulk mailing for work. I had no idea what I was doing and he patiently explained the whole process to me, then helped more when I came back with the mail bins and even helped me carry them out of my car. Excellent customer service! Someone give this guy a raise. Thanks, John!

This is a very good office with friendly helpful employees. Unfortunately a single mail carrier has made dealing with USPS a nightmare. This carrier does not like to deliver packages from Amazon. Instead of delivering packages, they claim that our mailbox was obstructed. I can understand not delivering if the mailbox can't be accessed. However I have video camera surveillance that shows no attempt was made to deliver and the mailbox was not obstructed. This has happened many times despite the fact that intentionally delaying mail delivery is illegal. When UPS was delivering Amazon packages we never had a problem. It is a shame that the reputation of a hard working group is sullied by a rogue worker who doesn't share their same values.
They are still at it. They claimed that they attempted delivery, today. However I was home and the video camera proves that no attempt was made. The sender was supposed to send it via reliable UPS not USPS! The difference in service is hard to believe.
UPDATE 2yrs later.
We are still having the same ongoing issues! This is like a Japanese Tea Ceremony. We order from Amazon, package doesn't arrive, notification USPS says "driveway blocked," we call to say we have video showing unrestricted access at all times. We end up picking up the package if they haven't already sent it back. What is so frustrating is that there is nothing we can do. We have filed complaints over and over with the same result. We have been told off the record that they really don't have any way of dealing with underperforming employees who aren't breaking laws or HR rules. A private company could never survive if they performed at this level.
