A simple note taped to the window of the Lakewood Post Office on 100th St reads, “Effective December 10th, 2022 Our 24 hours lobby will no longer be 24 hours- Our new hours of operation will be 5am-8pm. Thank you.”
Lakewood Post Office lobby no longer open 24 hours
You’ve got to be kidding!
Is this more of Dejoy’s attempt to destroy the p.o. system?
My guess would be too many homeless camping in the lobby at night?
I would agree with your thought that it was possibly becoming a haven for the homeless. I would be uncomfortable going into the PO late at night alone regardless of anyone sleeping in there. There has been so much local crime I’d be nervous about being trapped. Years ago I was robbed at a Lakewood gas station when I was the sole user at the pump. It has certainly made me more alert.
Good thing postage keeps going up. Pays the salary of the geniuses making these decisions and the ever decreasing services.
We should have Amazon take over the mail, they are more times than not on time, reliable and deliver 7 days a week and even put my delivery where I want it. The post office sometimes comes daily or not at random hours, tracking anything is laughable and they put my stuff in the rain. And they sure as hell don’t give me Thursday Night football for free as part of a $179 annual package.
This will cause loss of PO box rentals if they can’t be accessed. Likely leading to tearing them out and before long no lobby.
