I added a tip that has some background to this post. 1 star due to some frustration, wasted time going back and forth with their instructions.
Long story short, received a notice stating package would be at post office on 6/7, I got there end of day 6/6 just in case they sort it early. Was told to come 6/7 9 am (circled it on my paper giving me a look like, "don't you know how to read?")
Went along my way, came around 930 and man there are lines here, due to passport processing. Got the same clerk who told me to come 6/7 (that day) she went to look for my package, came back told me it wasn't here maybe went to get re delivered and I should talk to the courier.
Looked up the tracking and the nervousness kicks in cause now it says it's in City of Industry. She says that's not right I don't know why.
I go back to my office, catch the courier just leaving our compound. He recognizes me and says "did you get your package ? I left it there with Gary the supervisor"
Now I'm confused, so I figure I'll go back later in the day to sort it out.
All around 9 30 - 1030 am
Close up shop and head to post office again around 130pm get there and same amount of people.
Now I explain the situation to Linda the supervisor, she goes back and checks for my package and comes back saying it's not here, must be out on delivery.
I then explained again that I already came here in the morning (after instructed to the previous day) and caught up with the courier (after being instructed to by clerk that morning) and he told me to speak with Gary (Supervisor) as he knows where the package is. She said he's not available he's out managing drivers. I've re-run the situation and told her the tracking shows it's in the City of Industry, (clerk printed out a detailed report on the kiosk) goes back again to check.
After what seemed like a few pencil twirls, comes back and says it's here but not sorted yet and shows package just got here this morning and should be out for delivery Monday and disregards that i only came because of a notice left at the office 6/6.
So much for short, I wanted to let whomever read this know that I wasn't riled up or angry while writing this out. There's obviously a disconnect between the courier/driver and their own supervisor and the supervisor in the office (which doesn't make sense) I was consistently just given no answers and consistently wasted my time.
I wouldn't so frustrated if my package didn't affect our business and money impacting.
If the office can't handle passport services, don't offer it. If a supervisor can't provide resolution or mitigation nor have the patience to do so, don't supervise. If a clerk cannot have the patience to work with someone trying to get a package out or what not, don't work a job where you deal with numerous people every day!
let's be honest, USPS if it fits ships prices have gone up and aren't much cheaper if at all than the alternatives and if you can't uphold delivery times or be a reliable logistics company. You're hurting money not helping make it.
