- JCJackie CruzSep 3, 20241.0This postal office is by far the worst one in San Antonio. Of course it would be it is the in the west side. Besides being trashy and unprofessional the staff is rude. The supervisor Martha is rude and very unprofessional . I had mail mis placed in the past where the mail carrier has place my mail in other residences mail box. This Saturday my mail was misplaced again and according to these people the notifications I get of when I receive mail is not accurate. A check was lost and it’s not a big deal to them.
