- JMJessa MuirAug 4, 20205.0Melissa, who has been our mail lady for years, is absolutely amazing. I know that the Post Office itself has its fair share of issues, but this woman in particular genuinely cares about her job and her responsibilities and will go above and beyond for the people she delivers to. She definitely deserves recognition for the amazing job she does! I moved very recently and was honestly quite upset to learn that we are not going to be on her route anymore. However, she is still taking care of us and making sure that all of our mail goes to our new house while we make this transition, even if it's addressed to the old house. The fact that she has taken the time to make sure we are still receiving our mail, no matter what, just blows me away! Our community is very lucky to have Melissa, and I am extremely grateful for her. Thank you!
- RBRichard BrownMay 23, 20181.0Called the post Master here in Portales, NM to complain about mail carrier peeling out in the mud an covering my truck that was parked in my driveway with mud. Postmaster says they will talk to driver about issue. But will not pay to have my truck washed to get the mud off of it that carrier threw on it from peeling out. Carrier could have gotten out of car and put mail in mail box instead of pulling into the mud and making a mess.
