The hours it says the lobby and office are open are different on the website than reality. They aren’t open Saturdays and the lobby for PO Boxes is completely wrong. Says it’s 24/7. It’s open from 8am-6pm and not open on the weekend. I had a time sensitive package delivered on a Friday and I was still at work during their open hours. I could have gotten it on Saturday if they were open like it says on the website. I’m furious.

I visited the post office recently and encountered a female staff member with short hair, whose behavior was extremely rude because I hadn’t written the full address on the envelope. Her conduct was unprofessional and made the experience stressful. I hope management addresses this to improve customer service.

The Asian lady employee was beyond rude. She refused to help me as I walked in before closing, insisting I would take too long to write down the recipient address on the envelope. I understand that I came in close to closing, but the amount of time she spent telling me what to do could have been enough for me to prepare my package for shipment.
