    Got there on a Saturday at 11 am, they were closed. As we were standing outside with other customers, a guy appeared and told us they would open in 5 min (over one hour late!). Waited in line, turned out, they had no stamps to sell. A post office not capable to sell stamps! How low can you fall? Also, when a customer approaches you and says, "Good morning", common courtesy would make you reply or even look up. Not so at this post office...... Update: returned on Monday, they had no Christmas stamps. They sold us other stamps for our international cards, but we just found out they are for $1.27 instead of the necessary $1.70. So we have the wrong postage on all our cards.

    I should receive one newspaper 6 days a week and did not receive one Monday, yesterday and today. I also should have received a second paper today but did not. NOT untypical. Very poor management at 29206. Incapable of making timely deliveries.

    I’m trying to figure out why they keep saying they’ve delivered a package in my mailbox when the package is clothes and won’t fit in my mailbox so Now where is my damn package that’s I’ve paid money for????

    I order from a small business that uses this post office. Their mail is never picked up and deliveries to me take forever. The packages sometimes go to other states before they get to me or they sit showing in transit. I suspect they are sitting in your post office waiting for someone to scan them in to begin their journey. This is unacceptable. If I performed as poorly as you do at my job, I wouldn’t have a job. Do better!
