Wow.<BR/>Sounds just like my postcard experience!<BR/><BR/>******************************<BR/><BR/>Good Grief, Brandy!<BR/>That's horrid service! The worst I've heard and yet they get away with it? good gravy, they'd be GREAT fodder for Jeff Foxworthy!<BR/>LOL<BR/><BR/>********************<BR/>Emma! I LOVE it when you fill me in on things from so far away. Just the fact that you call them post SHOPs and not office is so interesting. <BR/>Thank you SO much for visiting and sharing how different yet same things can be. <BR/>*grin*Michelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08573730655117969888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12924401.post-42537562737529400962007-07-21T06:05:00.000-04:002007-07-21T06:05:00.000-04:00All post shops here are open 9-5 weekdays with one...All post shops here are open 9-5 weekdays with one pick up per day at usually around 4.30ish.

They keep whatever hours they want to, not the posted hours and the mail carrier for our area once put Chris' Bachelor's degree diploma next to the mailbox instead of getting out of her vehicle and putting it next to the door. And we were home. AND it fell over into the street and was almost run over. *sigh* So, whenever I have mail or packages to mail, I take it to the post office one town over. <BR/>You're lucky to have the PO you have!Brandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02738504696243512495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12924401.post-40930991488591359792007-07-20T11:52:00.000-04:002007-07-20T11:52:00.000-04:00We have weird service over here.

The mail carrier knows me so when he sees me on the street, he acknowledges me with a pleasant greeting which I'll return in kind. If he finishes up the mail and see me, he takes it out of my box and gives it to me.<BR/><BR/>The worst is the long lines with 1 or 2 people during the work lunch hour.Druhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07978384022143035332noreply@blogger.com
