- MMMike McGrathJul 18, 20251.0This post office needs to hire better employees or something. Numerous times now mail has been many days late. Important stuff too. Every time I go into the post office to ask for my mail, there's always a lame excuse on why the mail carrier didn't deliver it in the first place. Do your jobs and stop making lazy excuses.
