The Buckhead Post Office at the corner of Piedmont and Pharr also has great service.

It is just PTC. Try to avoid it.

The mail carriers routinely deliver mail to the wrong address.

They aren't gov. workers anymore they are owned or contracted out to a private company. It has been a few years now, but that was part of the reason for the jump in postage. The theory was that a private company or corporation could do better.........so much for that. Kind of like contracting out the flight service for pilots. Service is 10 times worse than when the Federal Gov. ran the operation. I don't even bother calling those jokers anymore. I don't think they are union anymore either. That's the problem they are disinfranchised.

The difference on a postal employee and a retail clerk at dollar store is about $20.00 an hour, plus benefits and pension.
Moving fast when it is crowded is reversed----they slow down so as not to be overworked.
And, do you really think a supervisor wants to dare and add an employee at a busy time? He would be blacklisted!
I will say this: It is expensive, but it works most of the time, even if slowly in many cases.

I’d settle for one iota of urgency from the employees even if they are understaffed at peak times. I can read almost two pages of my paperback while I’m waiting for them to turn sideways and take my package off the scale.

In my business, we offer certain financial services to clients. I was visiting a client who owns a dry cleaning shop in Fayette County. I walked in early and all the help were in the back end of the shop with no one left at the counter. The manager looked up (from about 20 yards) at the back of the building and noticed no one was taking my order at the counter.

What happened next was amazing. He began to sprint toward the front literally hurdling boxes of hangers like Edwin Moses at the Olympics. Almost sliding be the counter, he apologized for the delay and asked if he could help me.

My instinctive response was to say “Whatever they are paying you here, I’ll double it,” but remembering he worked for a client, I limited myself to meeting with the owner.

People like that are worth their weight in gold to a business owner. The point of the story is you can’t teach that to people. They either have the desire or they don’t. Most who don’t have it seem (with some exceptions) to work in governmental jobs.
