Had an appointment for a passport renewal for my minor daughter. We had to take time off of work and she had to miss school to get there on time. We checked in right on time and we were told to stand in a corner and wait and someone would be right with us. 40 minutes later when I inquired about being helped, I was told the person who is responsible is on "lunch" and they had no idea when he would be back. When I asked whether he could be reached, I was told "that's his personal time". Got it. Forget about work and school time for the family who had the appointment.

Worst Post Office customer service ever. The man that works there looks and seems miserable. There’s an African American woman that doesn’t speak to do when checking out with her. Just tear this place down. The location’s in Larchmont and PB are way better.
