The line at this post office is always insanely long with only one worker Behind the window, they need to do something about this. It’s super unfair and miserable. Been waiting 25 minutes with 7 people ahead of me still Avoid this post office at all cost

I want to share that todays service at the post office was exceptional. The woman who helped me, her name is Odessey went above and beyond.
I was waiting for a package that should have been delivered yesterday and something happened that stopped the delivery from being completed. I came in to the office wanting to pick up the package. Of course the post office has some rules they must abide by and after going through all of that quickly, Odessey was able to get me my package which was time sensitive. Im very grateful to her and the staff. Thank you

I love this post office. It's close to home and I get out of there pretty fast. My only criticism is that it needs more staff at times.
