    Jack is so mean! He messed up my passport photo by making it crooked so I had to go back there then he wants to be rude while taking my second photo acting like it was my fault. Not to mention, he does everything so slow it literally took 30 minutes just to get a picture. He gotta get fired.

    Please add the automatic label machines, there is no reason for this place to still have manual postage at the counter in 2025. The people that work there are miserable and have no care for anyone's time. This place alone is making me but a printer.

    By far the worst customer service of any business I've ever been too! If you can avoid them at all costs!

    Way too many times has my package been marked as delivered and there was absolutely nothing in the mailbox. After calling dozens of times, I always get told that it was marked as delivered to ‘stop the clock’ so they can meet some kind of deadline. But isn’t it a lie to say you’ve delivered it when you haven’t? And then, they just mark it as dead mail and i never receive anything. I’m usually very patient but this has happened with 4 packages of mine and I am over it. I wish retailers would just stop using usps as a courier for now on so I don’t have to deal with this incompetence.
