I waited for an HOUR in a local post office in Marina Del Rey yesterday at 4 in the afternoon. Usually at this one there are at most 4 people in line ahead of me. Yesterday there had to be about 25. Of course this is made worse because about 2 weeks ago the post office decided to shorten the hours at this location to noon until 5:30 PM (used to be open from around 9AM to 7PM (or maybe 6)).

Oh well, only should have to go once more before Christmas.
