Yoji was running the post office alone today and still managed to get people through the line quickly. She was multitasking helping several people at once and I so appreciate her efficiency! She has always been very knowledgeable whenever I have come in with a question.

In the last 4-6 weeks, two packages were supposedly delivered that I never received. Then, yesterday, one of the packages (“delivered” two weeks ago according to the USPS) showed up on my doorstep along with two magazines, one from last week and one from this week, apparently dropped off by the person (neighbor?) who actually received them. Although I jumped through the hoops to file a service request I have very little confidence that anything is going to come of it and this seems to be a consistent problem with the 98034 Post Office.

The postal worker between 8:30 AM and 9:40 AM is amazing. We got disconnected, and I received a call back from him. He completely helped and fixed my issue. Five-star service! I'm very happy with his customer service and all his help. Thank you very much.
