Hilariously inept and lazy. Had a 40 pound package that needed to be delivered, said that mailbox was full. Wasn’t aware it could fit in there, don’t know why they couldn’t just leave it at my door like always, besides the fact they just didn’t feel like it.
Requested redelivery, leaving specific instructions so that the delivery person doesn’t get confused; “leave at door”
And now I’m being told they can’t make the delivery with zero explanation, and being asked to pick up the package myself? Now I have to do your job for you? Is this a joke? Because I’m not laughing.
Get your act together. A group of Kindergarteners are more organized than you, and that’s just sad.

My wife tried to send an international package. My wife is very polite, but after a series of questions my wife asked her, the lady looked at her and said, "Don't tell me how to do my job." The lady refused to ship the package because it was 20 minutes before closing.
Then my wife asked for a stamp, but changed her mind and asked for a whole book of stamps. That also made the lady upset. We will always avoid this post office in the future until they hire people who are interested in being helpful, rather than antagonistic.

On top of not knowing how to read and identify numbers, I’m pretty sure they are deaf and mute at this location because I’ve been calling all week and not once has anyone answered.
