The service here sucks. Do Not waste your time if you like standing on line for 30mins or more. There is one guy behind the counter who does not belong in this role helping customers. He is slower than a turtle. Complained to post master and nothing was done to fix the issue, that was several weeks ago. Was told people were off and that's who was given as a replacement. Must be nice working here to still be off. Sounded like a BS answer.

Postal workers here have always been polite and helpful; however, Jesse deserves special mention:
We were expecting a shipment of live chicks. Tracking the shipment, we discovered that it had been delayed at Jamaica and was scheduled to be delivered the following day instead -- Obviously not great for live baby birds.
Jesse helped investigate -- and when they arrived later in the day, he drove them over to our house personally to deliver them!
(FYI, for those who don't raise chickens and wonder how they can survive the trip: Before they hatch, chickens absorb the remains of the yolk inside the egg and use it for nutrition/hydration over the first two or three days. A heat pack is added to the box to help them stay warm, and obviously there is special care in handling and delivery.)

Absolutely the WORST post people when it comes to delivery. Waited months for a package to arrive and when given the option for electronic delivery, the incompetent postman decided to NOT deliver the package despite having the electronic release to LEAVE the package. When calling the general number the hold time is over an hour and by then the post office will be closed and nothing will be done. Absolutely GARBAGE when it comes to execution.
