The woman with wavy hair had a bad attitude and was unwilling to help. When I paid for the service, she chose me in the survey and rated it as satisfactory when it was the complete opposite.

I wish all USPS workers were as kind and helpful as Kathy at this location. I usually dread going to the post office because the workers are always to rude. Kathy took the time to help me find a cost effective way to ship my package. Hire more workers like Kathy!

I guess anyone can just go in and take whatever stamps and tape and whatever that they want since there’s definitely no employees there to help you or to even answer the phone.
