My watch said 5 min. Another person and I walked up the steps at the same time. Door locked. She immediately left. I looked inside where they were still serving the last clients. Postal person came to door and unlocked to let someone out. I said it's not 3 yet and thought he was letting me in. He was not. He said they closed at 3. I said they closed before 3. I asked what clock they use. He said the clock on their screen. I said it doesn't match the international time clock then. He said he didn't know but that's the clock they use and this happens all the time. I asked how a person was supposed to make it on time if they don't use the standard clock. He shrugged. My rehetorical question: "If it happens all the time, why don't they check their clock against the international time clock?" Sounds like they have a problem. Additionally, although I realize that there will always be people trying make the deadline no matter what clock they use, since it was so close, why not be nice and let someone in? I did such things frequently for many years as a nurse. Sometimes circumstances didn't allow, but mostly people can do more than turn the key or drive off or walk away. It's a better world for all of us if we put ourselves out a little for one another.

I left with neither thing accomplished. The clerk had been turning away everyone in line for one reason or another, like the old owner of SF's infamous Persian Zam-Zam Room. I'd purchased two money orders a couple of days earlier, so I wasn't concerned. But--I should've been. First, she says the post office cannot accept $100 bills. I'd just used them two days earlier, I said. She claimed policy had changed in the previous 24 hours. Then--she also refused to postmark my mail. She started mattering about some special service I could buy, but I'd had it. AVOID this place LIKE THE PLAGUE

I show her the website and just nods and tell me "nope, I dunno nothin'' bout no website!" I looked at her in embarrassment and walked away. All she cared about was getting back on her phone and going home! I ended up going to the recreational center at UCB. Much better trained professionals. USPS do better.

I never thought I would write a Yelp review about a post office, but here we are. I used to be a…read morebig fan of USPS. I even worked in the mail room in college and got pleasure out of making sure mail went to the right person. A little over two years ago, I moved into my current apartment. I noticed pretty quickly that the letter carrier would make frequent mistakes, often delivering mail meant for a neighboring building or even a different street. They also delivered mail for former tenants. I couldn't fault them for not knowing who has or has not moved away, so I tried putting a post-it with a note on my building's mail box. That did not help. I even tried circling the name of one mail recipient and specifically noted that he had died (which I learned from a simple Google search). Incredibly, the letter carrier ignored that as well. I have finally started Googling the companies that are sending this mail and calling them to let them know that the people they are trying to reach no longer live here (and may have passed away). One would think that after multiple requests followed by a series of complaints, USPS would find capable employees, but that has not happened: the deceased former tenant still receives mail here. Recently, a package that was sent to me was scanned as delivered, but it was not in my mailbox or on my doorstep. I strongly suspected it was delivered to the wrong building. After I made a complaint to USPS, they located the package and brought it here - a week later. Thankfully, it was neither perishable nor anything I needed urgently. Last month, I got home from work one day and opened my mail box to find mail that was wet and dirty. It had not rained that day; the mail must have been dropped in a puddle, and rather than drying it off, the letter carrier delivered it as is. Perhaps the most troubling instance, though, is from a year ago, when USPS failed to deliver my ballot for the general election. I had to vote in person on election day (which I was thankfully able to do). No one answers the phone at this USPS location, and when I visit in person to bring them all the misdelivered mail, I am told that they will talk to the letter carrier. It has become evident that they are just not interested in taking responsibility for their mistakes. The sheer incompetence of this USPS office is mind-boggling. It is remarkable how little attention to detail the postal employees at this office pay. How is this tolerated by USPS?

Where I was living, on Spruce Street, was close to this US Post Office in North Berkeley, so if I needed to ship anything back to Washington State - this is where I came. We would get flat rate boxes, and then I would fill and ship them as needed. Traveling past on foot a number of times, I saw the lines could be very long. So, I would think through what I really wanted to send back (introspection and prioritization) to reduce the number of times I needed to come and ship belongings to Washington State. Even coming early/off hours, there was a wait - but the line moved briskly and the workers were fast and professional.
