Nicholas just stopped at my address to deliver mail. He is new and came to inform me that our permanent mailman would be assigned in about 2 months. Nicholas saw me struggling as I was trying to hang a swing in my front tree and he offered to help, bringing up my mail. We had a short conversation and he helped throw the rope over a branch that I could not reach. He is outgoing, very respectful, kind and compassionate. I said I would love for you to be my mail deliverer. Thank you for employing upstanding people in our community. He is an absolute pleasure and should be promoted. I live in the 46385 area on Kingston Drive.

I went in today to ask for help finding a missing package. Marion at the front counter was very kind and took all my information to forward to Rhonda (the person who handles missing mail). She made me feel as if my issue was important and explained how the missing mail process works. I appreciated her help. Now...hoping Rhonda can work some magic and find the package 🤞

I don't know why they have such a poor rating. There maybe a line but it moves quickly. I think the staff is excellent. Today, Laura, was very efficient and still made me laugh. They are just trying to do their best and we should respect them.
