Shipping Centers in Arlington, MA

“I went in a week ago and it was beyond busy. I overheard salty language, noticed a mountain of boxes waiting for UPS to pick up, a growing line and not enough help. There was one woman standing behind the register, not doing anything. Perhaps she was a trainee? The one woman that was working was doing a fantastic job, quickly juggling multiple transactions, working the computer, the phone, etc. - which was extra amazing considering she had one arm in a sling.
Thought somebody should know.”

“The staff that help me with my packages have been very efficient and friendly. Only problem I have with the E. Arl branch is that sometimes they are closed for an hour or so in the afternoon. (Now I know to go before 1PM) Arlington is lucky to have two post offices within a mile 1/2 of each other, though, so if I don't have time to come back to this small Post Office, I can go to the main one.”

“I am assuming she is Italian, not sure. However, the woman in the post office today was completely fun and smart. Beautiful woman inside out despite the line growing. She was so chill and professional. Instead of making me wait again in line. She stamped the letter and I was done already before I know it. I came here once before and let me tell you, the guy I can’t remember what was his name or what nationality he could be from, sure he is white, but definitely from somewhere. He was absolutely hating his job. I had to send two letter certified with return signature requested and he acted like I sent him to Africa to dig some gold in extreme temperature with no water. He was ridiculous. Every job has its positives and negatives. It’s the interactions with the customers that makes your day better. I understand there are definitely rude or vulgar or those who think they are better than everyone else, but the way he was disgusted with his work was concerning. I almost wanted to go to another post office, but too bad I already started filling out the forms.”
