Some of my mail was lost for a few weeks and I don't know how it happened. It has all arrived now and I have gotten everything else on time. I understand undergoing a staff change. Good quality small town post office.

I have never ever had so many issues getting my mail and packages in my life and I am old. How in the world do I get packages some days but not others? How can you totally miss a damn house number. Also, called, like I normally have to, BEFORE they close at 4pm and the phone just kept ringing. What is the actual point of the post office when they literally dont answer their phone or dont deliver packages?

We miss our old post man Mr. Wood; he went out of his way to make sure our package was secure. Mr. Wood would not skimp out when it came to delivering our package that would fit but just barely in our post box. the lady that took his place will just claim that the package would not fit and would claim that no one was home.. I drive the only car and my wife is a stay-at-home mom. so there is never someone not at home during the time the mail comes.

They are lazy. My mailbox leans slightly forward due to people driving on the dirt in front of it. They wouldn't deliver my mail because it was blocking them from delivering other mail. They are rude and lazy.
