Eric at the Post Office Is a National Treasure.
I walked into the post office emotionally fragile, spiritually confused, and one customs form away from losing my sanity. Then Eric appeared.
This man didn’t just help me — he commanded the situation. Forms that once looked like ancient hieroglyphics suddenly made sense. International shipping to Nicaragua? Eric handled it like he personally invented global mail.
He was patient. He was knowledgeable. He was calm in a building where time goes to die. While others merely work the counter, Eric operates at a higher plane of postal existence.
At no point did I feel rushed, judged, or doomed. He explained things clearly, double-checked details, and made sure everything was done right the first time — which, frankly, felt illegal for a government building.
If the USPS ever needs a spokesperson, a trainer, or a morale-boosting legend to restore faith in the system, Eric is that guy. I would willingly stand in line for an hour again just to be assisted by him.
Promote this man. Clone this man. Protect this man at all costs.
Eric didn’t just ship my package — he delivered hope.

I only go inside and I don't use the drop box. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. I have only ever waited up to 7 minutes and that was at a busy time. The parking lot is strange and it isn't really easy to get to.
