- DWDevin Walters6 days ago1.0Beyond lazy. They mark it delivered when it’s not. Tyshanda is the worst one.
- JRJose RomanSep 16, 20251.0Worst post office ever. Multiple times I’ve had packages “go missing” or “undelivered” and they can’t help me or give me any answers. Basically just a building for employees to steal whatever they like. Never bring your mail or packages to this facility. And don’t get me started on how absolutely rude and ignorant the lady at the counter was. Zero customer service skills or compassion or even basic communication skills. Instead go out of your way to Melrose park, Ms Ford was a blessing.
- SSSJun 5, 20251.0Clerk #22 has the worst attitude. She is not customer friendly and if you speak at her, she does not speak back. It seems like if you aren't the same race as her, she demeans/belittles you and is very intimidating. At no point should any customer feel this way spending money and supporting her job. Maybe she needs to be put in the mail room and sort mail instead of making paying customers feel like this.
- AAADec 21, 20231.0The women working there is the rudest person I’ve ever encountered. She got mad at me for a misunderstanding and when I try explaining she would cut me off and got mad when I talked back to her. Hope she gets fired cause she clearly does not want to be there. Super UNPROFESSIONAL!!!
