Clerk at the front desk was highly rude and condescending. When I explained to her what I needed, she just stared at me, while I awaited her guidance. When she didn't provide it, I asked her "Do you have tape?" She looked away and chuckled and said Yes. I have some for sale and pointed behind me,. I was obviously a bother to her, and I didn't feel welcomed, invited, or her willingness to help me out. So I decided to leave and take my business else where.

It would be great if they could stay open until 5:30 one evening a week. I have packages to pick up and can’t get there between 8 and 4
