The calling option sucks. All I want to do was talk to an agent regarding the mail order but autobot sucked my energy out by repeating “I don’t understand “ seriously!!??

The Colonia Post Office staff are very easy to work with.
I really like that they stay open until 7PM, it works with my schedule very well for shipping last minute orders from my online customers.

Jaison is the most nicest & friendliest person at this post office… very easy to work with, he explains everything properly & tries to help in every situation. We run a small business and everything is done so seamlessly. Appreciate all the staff here and all the support!

The gentleman behind the counter, Jaison, was EXTREMELY patient, polite, and professional. He was the kindest and most understanding postal service employee that I've interacted with in a VERY long time. Years, probably.
He waited patiently for me as I made multiple phone calls to determine at which speed and the correct address to mail a letter. He even rang me up at one minute past 7:00 pm, which is what time the office was supposed to be closed.
I live closer to other post offices, and I would drive out of my way to go visit the Colonia Post office ANY time if Jaison was the employee working that day. :D
Edit: I had pre-typed my above review in a different program before logging onto Google to share my experience, andJust now, after reading some of the reviews, it seems I lucked out with meeting the famous Jaison. There is a reason so many of the reviews sing his praises, he really is that kind and professional.
THANK YOU Jaison!!!!!!!
