A Day at the Post Office- Attention Postmaster Manhattan

The Main Post Office in Manhattan is located on 8th Avenue between West 31st Street and West 34th St. It is a massive building and is open 24/7.

However there are a couple of really stupid things that go on there.

1. The information window doesn't open till 4pm

Presumably, the Postmaster of the Manhattan District doesn't think that anyone will have any questions till 4pm. This is IDIOTIC. How in G-d's name can you be so fuckin stupid as to not open an information window till 4pm in the afternoon? This is what passes for acceptable treatment of postal patrons in Manhattan.

2. When you bring a Priority Mail letter going abroad, you have to stick on the post office custom form yourself.

I just learnt this yeaterday. The woman wouldn't attach the one fuckin form to the envelope. Instead she reveled in sitting there while I struggled to attach the form (I'm unfamiliar with how to attach the form and secondly I'm not technically proficient). She could have just done it for me, if she was a civilized human being and not a postal employee with a cushy job who can't be fired.

I later complained to another employee and he told me to write the Postmaster. Well, Postmaster, Manhattan here is the writing. Now everybody, searching can read about how the Main Post Office in Manhattan treats the public.

Let's see if you have the balls to reply.

I plan on making public regularly the way the public is mistreated in that building. Maybe you should write me a letter if you're unhappy.
