Who manages this post office, is clearly understaff, they couldn’t get to me because there was a passport appointment, he said it was going to be 20 minutes.
if you have passport appointments please have some else who can help customers, so I went to UPS and mail my package I was there less that 5 minutes with professional and friendly staff

There is a lady there on Friday's who is so rude and makes it seem like I'm wasting her time. She really should be held accountable for how she treats customers. She does not wear a name on her shirt.
