- TFTaite FischerOct 31, 20251.0the older lady with short hair is so rude. I may start driving to a further location just to avoid her. God forbid you need some help or make a small mistake because she will yell at you and make you feel stupid. i dont say this lightly, she needs to be fired
- CAClarence AngOct 22, 20251.0Rude staff. They need to teach better customer service.
- ASAshley SpeyerSep 13, 20251.0This is ridiculous I traveled all the way over here and they’re closed but the store is supposed to be open at 9am! This is bs!
- JWJennifer WrightAug 27, 20251.0Wow. The reviews are accurate. The woman working there was snarky, condescending, and too busy watching a show on her phone to be bothered to help me. Awful.
- AKAtena KarJun 11, 20251.0I had a very upsetting experience at this location today. The staff member spoke to me slowly and in a tone that felt condescending, as if I couldn’t understand English. When she lent me a pen, she told me not to forget to return it because she had already lost three. That made me feel not only mistrusted, but also like a child or a schoolgirl being watched. Later, she said the way I wrote the number “1” looked like a “7” and told me I should “write it the way we do it here.” That comment made me feel like a stranger, as if I didn’t belong or wasn’t welcome here. I’m a U.S. citizen and an immigrant. My nature is gentle and polite, so I didn’t confront her in the moment—but I left feeling ashamed, anxious, and I even cried afterward. I’m doing my best to call this place my home. Experiences like this make it harder. I always treat others with respect, and I believe people—especially those working in public service—should treat customers with the same courtesy in return. I hope USPS will make sure all employees are trained to treat everyone with the basic respect every human being deserves.
