This post office is by far the worst post office ever. They need better management. Don’t ever buy a P.O. Box here, you will never get your packages. Customer service sucks. They never answer the phone. And nobody’s knows nothing. They must just anybody in this place.

Went to this Post Office last week. There was a line and the female who was working so hard and professional had an impatient customer yelling at her that they should get more help. A customer thankfully stepped in and said “it’s not her fault - call your congressman” He continued to complain but I let him go ahead of me and said “They are working hard here”
She handled the situation with class and dignity and won the respect of everyone there.
That said wondering why it takes the post office 4 days to deliver a certified letter to the next town - but I digress.
