Unfortunately, I've had to use this post office for the past several years to conduct business and personal matters. This review is based on hundreds of interactions, not all have been bad, lately they've been better. However, many have been worse than bad, horrendous. I'm left feeling abused, lied to, and mistreated by red-eyed employees acting arrogantly while obviously hung-over and/or on drugs...beginning with the manager, who I've seen at least 10 times utterly humiliate and berate customers who have valid issues about disservice or lack of service. Putting it politely, someone should give him a lesson in personal hygiene as well as on the meaning of the 2 words, customer service...like,"How not to be rude and hateful and defensive."
The depth and detail of incompetency and failure would take many pages to convey. Distribution of mail for the many box holders is unpredictable, often delayed because of lack of staff, often inaccurate because of basic incompetency in sorting, and on several occasions, not even happening. The counter service is unpredictable, depending on the mood and clerk...some days, great, have a nice day, say the same thing over and over...other days, who's the boss? where's the boss? does anyone know what's going on around here? I'm told to call the 800 number where the wait for service is over 75 minutes, every time...that's one hour and 15 minutes to talk to a person.
In addition to having my postal matters botched regularly, paying customers can expect to be insulted, misled and put off. To give an example, I had an important part ordered for a computer and was under a time frame to complete work. Tracking showed the item was delivered, yet the post office couldn't find it. Ok, that's one thing, but in the process of trying to get help finding it, I was treated with arrogance, impatience, and rudeness. I was told to call the 800#, I was told things that were not true, and that I should check back, which I did nearly every day for a couple weeks. Ultimately my package appeared for pickup with a footprint impressed on it. My fragile computer item had been stepped on and who knows how long it was on the post office floor. No apology or concern, the clerk kind of laughed and shrugged it off.
Some clerks are friendly and seem to be overworked to cover for those who are too stoned or indifferent to pull their weight. Because it's the post office, all of us pay for the failings. Hopefully this review will help bring some attention and improvements. read more
