I have come to this place twice and I have had the worst experience, the woman who works at the counter has very bad manners and treats customers very poorly, she should not work there because people who work with the public should be polite and courteous, something that this person does not have, I do not know her name but I showed up there today, August 30th at 9 AM. She made fun of me and treated me badly just for not knowing how to speak English and communicating through a translator, she rolled her eyes at me and was very disrespectful and when I told her that what she was doing was racist, she made fun of me in front of everyone who was there and laughed very loudly. She should be fired, people like that do not have the ability to have that job

One person working with over a dozen people in line. Long wait times. Two other people spotted walking around yet not helping with customers waiting over 15 minutes in line. I walked out and went to the Post Office on 3rd in Old Gretna. Will never use this location again.
