This place continues to be extremely unprofessional. Everytime I come here they make it extremely difficult to retrieve my packages. I arrived today to pickup a missed package and Diane didn’t even want to take my tracking information because apparently my package is not ready for pick up even though my package clearly states it’s ready for pickup on this date. This is not my first time given a difficult time here, another agent named Nariah always has an attitude and lack of professionalism. They all laugh at you behind the window too while being slow paced knowing there’s a line of ppl waiting to be helped. Not getting my package after waiting 30 mins online is BS because there’s no such thing on usps website. I told this to Diane and with a nasty attitude she said “why would I lie to you “ … idk maybe cause you don’t want to get up from your chair and find my package DUH

Worst USPS THAT I HAVE EVER BEEN. I WAS HERE LAST SATURDAY TO PICK UP MY PACKAGE BUT THEY SAID THEY DIDNT HAVE IT. I came to pick it up today and they were keeping my package since last Friday. What kind of USPS is holding someone’s package and they didn’t know where my package was. It was utter bs. No responsibility and professionalism on this location. They are known for lazy service even from a USPS delivery person. They labeled my package as not safe when it is just kimchi. Supervisor who looks like it doesn’t seem to care about the issue too. I files three complaints before I was able to pick up the package. What a joke. Worst experience ever and never wanna deal with this location again. One star? Don’t even deserve any shape and color. I hope this location knows why their service is trash and horrible.
