Literally the slowest post office ever! There were 6 people in line and it took about an hour to get stamps.
The people behind the counter litterally had a 15 minute talk in the back office while serving the client.
A person wanted to drop a package instead of waiting in line but the person had to change packaging. This stopped the already slow service in order to find scissors that they couldn't find within 10 minutes. This also angered the 6 people in line.
When I finally was being helped for stamps, the personnel got distracted by a colleague in the back office and somehow made the judgement that it was better to talk with the college than to have me pay for the stamps.
They had to make me wait for another 5 minutes.
If Trump wanted to save money on his budget, I would have fired the people working there

They had one worker mid afternoon signs that say they do not take boxes at this time told us that we needed to go to these other ones that had plenty of room that we could go so we did and those people had no room either, but just asking them questions was like pulling teeth and they were extremely rude. Would not recommend to go here if you can avoid it.

Came by on a weekday afternoon. I was able to find the flat rate box I needed (often missing at other locations) because they were well stocked and I was seen quickly and courteously by the person working.
My only complaint is not their fault- it was confusing to find the USPS within the larger building. The entrance is on 13th between market & Chestnut NOT on market.
