I wish I could give zero stars. Since Crystal has been gone the mail has been horrible. The man in there the last week has been very rude. Leaving no mail for over 2 weeks in the wrong box and medication in a locker with no key. Says packages out for delivery until after they close and then send email that they couldn't deliver it. Returned medication to the VA when there wasn't a notice left to pick ot up.

This post office should be closed. They serve absolutely no purpose and certainly do not serve the customers. I avoid USPS at all if I can and the reason is behind counter on the the carriers. They are a disgrace to a once proud and efficient service.
