Ladies and Gentlemen, sit back and relax as you read this review. Because this review is going to be a BUMPY ride!
I came to this USPS location today to apply for a new passport, and the experience was awful from start to finish.
The woman who was supposed to be helping us had headphones in the entire time, was constantly on her phone, and spent more time chatting than doing her job. I waited around 20 minutes, and people were skipping the line with no organization or explanation.
When she finally “helped” me, her attitude was terrible—rude, dismissive, and clearly uninterested in doing her job properly. Bad attitude alone is frustrating, but what made this experience unacceptable was her racist assumption.
Because I was speaking Chinese to someone else, she assumed I didn’t speak English. I was literally speaking to her in English, fluently, with an English accent. Despite that, she told the person she was on the phone with, “I’ve got people who don’t understand English.” That was incredibly disrespectful and unnecessary.
Maybe she was having a bad day—fine. But that does not excuse treating customers like this or making assumptions based on appearance or language. We’re all human, and no one deserves to be treated this way.
I will not be coming back to this location. Save yourself the time and frustration and go to another USPS, even if it’s farther away. This place is not worth it.
When this woman spoke English she was mumbling and speaking so fast, like there was no need to rush. There was no line behind me... Additionally, whenever I said I didn't understand a section in the passport application she just stared at me and then spoke in a rude tone. Like okay i guess, thanks??
Extra Note :
There was a review about her as well on her phone chatting with her earphones, and being disrespectful. The review was 7 months ago, and theres a picture provided of her!
The review was made by : Anyone else W ~ credits to this person!!

The worst post office. You can be home all day waiting for a package and they don't even have the decency to ring your bell and just leave a failed delivery attempt.
