As for the post office, I went to the post office the other day to mail a large envelope and wound up waiting in line for over a half an hour. What should have been a simple task turned frustrating when the Automated Postal Center (which I normally use for mailing large envelopes and small packages) wasn't working and I had to go through the regular line. There was only one of the five service windows being manned but there was a guy out on the floor with a small paper pad asking people questions about their mailings, checking boxes on the paper, and then handing it to the customer to give to the guy at the window. When he asked what I needed, I told him that 'we' needed him to be manning a service window and not out here pretending to be efficient. He went on to the next customer as several other people in line added similar comments in agreement.

If I needed a flag, I certainly would not go to the post office expecting to get one.

Agree.

I gave up on the USPS a long time ago and only go there if I absolutely have to. The service there just isn't what it used to be. I mostly use the private postal businesses now. They're quicker and much more efficient.
