    They often ignore my vacation stop instructions and continue to deliver. I back see them do this on my doorbell cam. And they never answer the phone when I call to correct this

    Dropping off a prepaid package is a 20 minute ordeal. No open drop off package slot

    I'm sure the people working here are doing their best but they are perpetually understaffed. I would never even bother coming if it weren't the most convenient post office to my house. They just never have enough people to serve customers in a remotely timely manner. Dropping off a prepaid package is a 30 second transaction that shouldn't be proceeded by 20 minutes of waiting in line at 2:00 on a weekday afternoon (let alone at any of the busier times of day like the lunch or after work rush). Half the time I wind up going a full 10 minutes out of my way to the Annandale branch off Little River turnpike just to save time. Anyway, I'm sure some of this is a symptom of federal budget cuts but whoever reads these and has some input might be able to throw us a bone.
