- CCCaneZNov 6, 20251.0If I could do 1/2 of a star I absolutely would. These people here are rude and unprofessional human beings. I had a bunch of packages to bring in and they got mad and started cussing at me because they were too lazy to take them in the back. They were all packaged properly and labeled properly. If you hate the job that much then just flat out quit
