I had a remarkable experience at this post office. I know i's a small town - and a very different experience than NY.
But still -- it was remarkable.
I had to send a package to one of my children. I really can't remember the last time that I went to a post office to send a package. I always have my staff do it because it has been such an unpleasant experience in the past -- long lines, unfriendly clerks etc -- you know the drill.
So I go in with an unwrapped unsealed unaddressed box of stuff.
The man behind the counter was a sweetheart.
I told him I hadn't sent a package in years- and he said "Really? Let me help you "
He got some tape, helped me wrap the box and seal it securely, gave me the correct labels and a pen.
AND the whole time he was helping me wrap the box- he was explaining all of my different mailing options.
He helped me decide on the best options and got the whole thing of and done in 15 minutes.
It was great - he was great -
Now I'm thinking about sending some more packages - just so I can do it again :-) read more
