Like a post office from another time. I'm guessing the last cleaning or renovation here was in 1998 or so. Smells much like an abandoned library and is somehow amazingly the closest post office to the entire Summerlin area.
Every employee is entirely over it. I was under the impression that postal employees got paid reasonably well but you'd get better attitudes from a teenager at dollar general than you do here.
The lines are always, always long. As per usual with anything involving shipping there will be a dozen people before you that have apparently never shipped or received mail and require the unlucky employee to explain that no, transporters don't yet exist, yes, overnight mail is expensive, stamps do indeed cost "that much" and sure enough there is no federally mandated guarantee that their shipment of valuable and vintage long john's may not arrive in Switzerland by exactly 8:30am the following day.
Still though. I mail a lot. It a a business thing. I'm one of those people who print their labels and tape their boxes and just usually need to drop it off. Of course their automated machine has been broken since Clinton was in office so... I wait in line.
However. Lord forbid your local postal carrier just gets lazy and doesn't leave any info in your box or on your door, and doesn't drop it in your mailbox or by your door. No, more often than not he takes your package here. Awaiting your pickup. You won't know it, until it just fails to arrive. This happens with alarming frequency. Doesn't matter if your package is $10 or $1000. It sits here waiting for you to psychically divine that it's ready for you.
Except it's not. See, at the counter you can see a bit of the back. Piles and piles of boxes and trash all kind of just mixed together. Somewhere in there is your package. Maybe. Not mine, not in two different cases. Two different packages over a 3 months span have just evaporated. Tracking stops here. Searches yield no result. Insurance claims auto denied. Your recourse? Hope the company that shipped the package is in a good mood and can reship. Nevada is great. Summerlin is great. This post office? It's a portal to hell. Ship any other method if you want any form of reliability. read more
