Patience Wearing Thin At The Post Office

Hello Everyone, have you ever been on a really long line at the post office and you have some fool who has 10 boxes doesn't speak any english and didn't fill out the proper forms for the boxes, yeah I had that experience today, this women was ahead of me so she goes up there puts in a few boxes and the guy says to her you need to fill out the green customs forms for all these boxes or they can't be shipped, so he hands her a bunch of the forms and she didn't understand what they said of course, and the women is speaking Russian to him and of course the post office clerk has no clue what she's saying and he's like anyone speak Russian in here and what a shock no one answers, so for a least 5 minutes the women kept on trying to speak to him, and of course that felt like 5 hours, then it got heated the post office clerk was like look I don't understand what your saying to me, finally he got frustrated and said next step up please and she stormed off screaming, and to top it all off they guy in back of me smelled liked yarlsberg cheese come on people please be prepared before you go to the post office and have all your forms and boxes filled out and take a shower geez that is my rant for the day. http://www.bonanzle.com/booths/CharlesSagona

  1. Guess there's something to be said for small town (1,700) post office...no lines, no Russian speaking customers, no waiting because I can put my prepaid packages up on the counter and know they'll be scanned in :)

    Hope your day is less frustrating tomorrow!

  2. I also "enjoy" it when you get to the post office early, and they open up 10 minutes late. Long lines apparently are the norm, especially with people being laid off.
