One of our delivery people doesn't deliver all our mail. I was supposed to get a bank statement one Saturday but it never came. The idiot returned it to the bank as undeliverable. While I was at the bank to sort this out (the bank was charging me $10 for having a bad address) I discovered my license expired but I never received a notice it was expiring. I complained but this is still happening. One of our delivery people doesn't want to deliver all of the mail and sends some back as undeliverable!

The Garfield PO on Palisade is where I usually go. With the exception of lack of street parking when busy, I have never had any problems. The staff is friendly, courteous and competent.
