- KBKatelin B.Jul 11, 20261.0Really rude experience. I got there before the post office closed and the 2 women were so rude. They said I had 5 minutes after 12 to be done or I would need to leave and come back a different day. I've never been pushed out of a post office before saying that they needed to be closed because the post office doesn't pay them for overtime. Say what I am most certain they pay you for overtime and what is 5 or 10 minutes to finish helping a customer that was already there but to make them feel awful about being a customer. Maybe they need to be in a different job if they speak to people in such a way.
- TTThu TranMay 21, 20265.0BEST LITTLE CORNER OF USPS in SSF. This Post Office is small and clean ans staffed with nice efficient counter staff. Those of us living in this area should lend our full support to make sure that we can keep this nice station open. It’s a luxury not having to drive far or to deal with unhappy staff for our postal need. I was helped today by a young lady who so efficiently and quickly took care of my mail. Thank You 😊🙏 5/21/2026

- MCMoanaLee Jasmine Franzoia (CAlofa650)Mar 6, 20265.0Kinda hidden. Maybe make a better sign to see it better. My first time there and I met Liza! So sweet! Thank you for helping me out 🙂 Will be back ☺️
