I really hate the post office in general. Signed up for a PO Box online- paid for it on there and everything. Went to go get my box/ key. No one at counter, 5th in line. Left after 15 mins. Came back an hour later, 3rd in line. No one at counter. Came back few hours later. 3rd in line again. Lady said the guy than can do it just left- be back in 10. Came back next day at 2:30. He’s out to lunch. Came back 30 mins later. He refuses to print out the 1 page form needed for P.O. Box. Go to grandparents to print paper and return. Finally get box assigned. No keys. Likely 2 month lead time for keys. Spot on my receipt says “2 keys delivered. None on order” so I’m sure they’ll try to charge me for keys at some point. Went to try to email/ chat with someone online to say about key issue- and of course they say, “we don’t have any info on key orders, we can give you the number to your local branch”, well no kidding. I wanted to push it to a higher power, so I wasn’t getting charged for keys at some point, but we will see.
Typical of any government run institution I guess. Absolutely terrible service, nothing is easy online, run down buildings, and understaffed. Maybe if they gave options for general mail service once a week, or once a month- they could save some money. Lord knows i don’t need mail every day, it’s like 90% junk anyway. Nothing says “save the planet” like printing out useless junk, and paying for fuel for the 1995 model mail vans, and diesel tractor trailers to transport it all.

You can not call this post office. Either they don’t have a phone or they keep it off the hook…totally lame.
