I manage a senior building in the Austin neighborhood with 85 residents, and our assigned letter carrier has been consistently unprofessional. She refuses to deliver packages (even telling my receptionist that if we “keep ordering big packages, she won’t deliver them”), speaks loudly on her phone while swearing in front of seniors, and is often rude and belligerent. This behavior is not acceptable, especially in a senior living environment where respect and professionalism should be the standard. Our residents deserve better service.

Understaffed? I feel bad for the employees but staffing and customer service training (if it exists) is very poor.
