If you want to experience the absolute pinnacle of atrocious customer service, look no further than this Hope Street USPS location.
During a recent visit, I simply asked a staff member (a middle-aged, bald man) to confirm if I had placed my prepaid packages in the correct drop-off area. Instead of a standard professional response, he exhibited unprovoked hostility. His face turned visibly red with anger, and he glared at me in dead silence for several uncomfortable seconds, looking as though he was on the verge of a physical outburst. When he finally spoke, he aggressively snapped, “What would you do if I didn’t answer your question?"
It is completely unacceptable that a publicly appointed USPS employee can display such blatant, passive-aggressive hostility toward a customer asking a basic operational question. This level of unhinged behavior should result in immediate disciplinary action.
Local management and the Postmaster need to review the conduct of their staff immediately. Employees who actively antagonize the public and face zero consequences do not belong in customer-facing roles. Frankly, an automated robotic kiosk would be infinitely more helpful, efficient, and respectful than the current staff.

This has been the worst post office I’ve ever been to by far. The service attitude, the pace of service, and the way they treat your packages. I had just paid to ship my boxes and the person who helped me THREW them already behind the counter. You’re better off trying the one in Palo Alto.

Showed up and waiting 10 min in line only for them to say their machine is down and can only accept cash or cheque... really?
