- XMXtian de MediciNov 17, 20251.0The Worst Post Office Experience of My Life I’ve been coming to the 925 Dickinson Post Office for over 10 years without a single complaint, but today was hands down the worst experience of my LIFE. After waiting in line for 20 minutes (which I didn’t mind), things went downhill the moment I reached the counter. My package was clearly marked with giant “FRAGILE” stickers, yet the employee flipped it on its side like it weighed nothing. When we went through the standard “liquid, fragile, or perishable” questions, I asked about adding insurance. She told me there’s an automatic $100 included—great. But when I asked to add another $100, she insisted the next level was $500, raising my total from $14.95 to $31.00. I told her that couldn’t be right, but she wouldn’t budge. While I was deciding between the two prices, I took out cash, and she suddenly informed me, “Oh, we only accept credit cards.” I explained that I had waited 20 minutes and saw no signage anywhere indicating credit-card-only payments. Her response? “You could have come this morning—we open at 9.” What that had to do with anything, I have no idea. I went home to get my credit card and returned about 30 minutes later, only to find three customers waiting while the same employee was in the back loudly gossiping instead of helping people. I finally said, “Maybe you should be out here helping customers instead of being in the back room gossiping!” I decided to leave because I felt, after my horrific experience, I wouldn’t put it past her to purposefully damage my package! I walked all the way to the Snyder Ave. location, and the difference was night and day. I shipped my package using cash, added the extra $100 insurance with no problems, and was treated with basic courtesy—something the Dickinson location seems to lack entirely. If you want to wait in line for 15+ minutes with one rude employee at a location that has three windows, then the 925 Dickinson Post Office is for you. Otherwise, do yourself a favor and go elsewhere—Snyder Ave. is a much better option.
