I am at the post office a lot and the only complaint I have is that they don't seem to have enough…read morehelp and the lines get long. But the clerks are invariably pleasant, knowledgeable, and efficient. I've seems them with difficult or confused patrons and they are so patient and explain things over and over until people understand. We are very lucky to have these people.

I have an Etsy store and I rely on the USPS to pick up and deliver my packages…read more This was never a problem until I moved to Columbia. In one year, I have had mail sent to my neighbors, and I have received theirs. Most recently, they did not pick up my outgoing mail for two days. Now two days later, the package I shipped has not been entered into the tracking system. Now I am going to have to issue a refund. No problem there, it's not the customers fault the USPS cannot perform. My problem is the lack of accountability. No one is responsible. Mail gets picked up, or it doesn't. Packages get entered or they don't. There is no consistency. What was once a prideful example of America doing it's best, has turned into a circus sideshow. You cannot and should not trust the USPS to do the right thing.

The young girl at the first desk looked like she was half asleep and didn't speak just yawned and…read morehanded my paperwork to the old lady in the next cube. This old lady really needs to retire. She was rude and just shoved my papers back at me without looking and said you don't have what you need. Now, she had NO clue why I was there. I had not even begun telling them what I needed. The young girl just laughed and picked up her phone. The old lady yelled the next number before I even had the chance to say a word. Do your self a favor and go to the one in Jeff City or on Grindstone. AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE!!! It is dirty, dark, dank, and smelled of weed and BO!

My service was great and the person behind the counter was very patient with me. I've typically had…read moregood experiences here. However; that is not the case for everyone. While there today, renewing my license, there was an older woman with a slight accent doing something similar. I was shocked at how this woman was being treated. The DMV employee was acting impatient and said some demeaning things. Clearly, the customer has driven in Missouri for a number of years and is proficient in the English language. Despite this, the DMV worker repeatedly asked if the customer "knew her ABC's" as she was taking her vision test. I have reason to believe that the instructions were unclear or the machine not functioning properly, hence why the customer was confused and taking a little extra time. Thankfully, a different employee stepped in and took charge of the situation, offering to check out to make sure the machine was working. Still, I think the customer was embarrassed since her situation was visible and audible to several others in the building. I am ashamed, sad, and angry to see this treatment at the DMV.

Wow has it been years since I've stepped into a physical library!!!…read more After igniting my love for reading again, I found I needed a more sustainable place to cycle through books instead of hitting up B&N every week or so. Columbia public library made it easy to register for a free library card all online! I could even start checking out books before my card was shipped to me. We decided to check out the place in person and what a beautiful safe haven! There's lots of quiet spots to sit and read or study. Checking a book out was also so simple using their little kiosks located all around the library. Can't wait to come back!
