- JAJazmine AndersonSep 9, 20253.0***REVIEW FROM A TRUCK DRIVERS POINT OF VIEW WHO DELIVERS AMAZON THERE MORE THAN THE OTHERS DO AND IF IT'S NOT ME, IT'S ANOTHER FROM MY COMPANY*** For as terrible as the area is, it's actually NOT BAD compared to some Post Offices I've delivered at and I mean CRAZY bad spots like Toppenish haha Parkland is fenced, secure and they're open no matter how early we arrive. The ONLY ISSUE I have is their Mail Carrier, he takes SO long to get Unloaded/loaded back up and leave, not to mention the car he almost hit exiting the place this morning, yes, it was me today lol I know Amazon ain't sqwat and they have priority and I have no problem waiting for the Mail Carriers whether or not we have to, the issue is in the fact that we're stuck waiting a half hour-45mins for this huge white bald guy to unload his loaded carts one at a time then loads the empty ones back up one at a time, waddles in and out of the building then looked straight at me when he cleaned his hands with his towel then loaded a couple more carts then left, but a woman like me can spend no more than 5mins to unload 2 pallets with my jack then OUTTA THERE to my 4 other stops. The post office should be helping him unload, USPS trucks belong to USPS as their offices do lol i don't make other drivers late, he couple pick up the pace, and be careful when he exits because, even i got startled at that, car came and he almost pinches outta there then hits his brake when he turned his head to see theres a car that sat there for like 10secs, enough time to be seen long before this. But rest assured everyone, that your packages are ALWAYS safe in my box truck, I strap everything and anyone who sees a white woman in a purple vest unloading at the Post Offices of Sumner, Lakewood, Parkland,Spanaway, Roy, Yelm, and Rainier, feel free to ask questions you may have about the condition of your package or whatever, I cant do anything about your package lol but I could at least answer questions as to why packages come as they do or what COULD HAVE happened if it arrived damaged and I could tell you what to do on Amazon's app to correct it I know so much. Im happy delivering these just need the Mail Carrier to hurry it up lol arriving 32mins early to Parkland, then to have my arrival AND departure times come and then go, then to unload 2 pallets quickly to still arrive at the Spanaway Post Office almost 20mins late is a bit ridiculous and theres no other Mail Carrier that would make us wait like this unless I go to Port Townsend where that guy leaves his trailer then I have to use my liftgate but, I cant do that at Parkland they have a platform thats high and the guy works like he is too 😄
