Initially tasked with eliminating Native Americans, their land, their culture, & the people have now evolved to preserving & recovering Native cultures, land, tribal sovereignty... In the beginning, B.I.A. negotiated "treaties" whereby Indian tribes ceded Indian lands to the U.S. via "trusts". By 1887, U.S. acquired 93% of Indian lands. -B.I.A. Established schools to eradicate Native cultures, instill white culture & assimilate Indian youth into Metro non-Indian society.. -establish bounties to kill off the bison to eliminate food source from Natives. By the 1970's, the B.I.A. was taken over by Native Americans & Alaskan natives, providing 97% of the staff. The B.I.A. became a training ground for training advocates who went to their tribes to work as advocates. The B.I.A. no longer means "bossing Indians around" November is Native American Heritage Month

It's possible there may be a few services that are only offered at "real" Post Offices, so if you have some edge-case postal need, you might have to go stand in line at the regular dystopian post office somewhere. But anything else, why not do it at the Trading Post? Just my two cents.

For 13 years, I frequented the purgatory that is the UPS store in Sausalito (3001 Bridgeway) -…read morestrictly out of convenience. On the outside are parking spots that fit roughly 85% of your vehicle (as is customary in hell). On the inside is a revolving door of unprofessional employees and a store that looks like it gets cleaned every solar eclipse. I remember walking in one day and there was dog vomit on the carpet and I thought "Well, this is certainly on brand." I was unfazed as I tiptoed through the vomit that had been tracked throughout the store. I held my breath as the employee gave me an entire breakdown of how terribly the owner treated them (in general), how he refused to address the biohazard, and how it wasn't their job to do so. Today, I had the pleasure of meeting the owner myself, who was so incredibly unprofessional and rude to me that another customer actually stopped me outside to apologize for his behavior. It made me miss the dog vomit and masterclass in patience. I'm actually grateful for today's unpleasant interaction because it led me to this particular UPS franchise (very close by, in Mill Valley). There is ample parking (that fits a whole car). When I walked in, I was in shock by how absolutely clean it was. I literally stood in the front door in awe for an awkwardly long period of time. The gentleman at the front desk (manager and brother to the owner) was so pleasant and personable. It was like being upgraded from coach (more like the baggage compartment) to first class. We're getting transported with the chickens over here in Sausalito on a stakebed truck full of hay, and you Mill Valley folks are doing high tea with the Queen. This whole time!? How did I miss this place?

He recovered a small leather ottoman-like stool, and he rebuilt the cushions on a vintage mohair sofa. The sofa was miserably uncomfortable as the down cushions had lost all support, but the "bones" of the piece were good. He figured out how to rebuild the cushions w/ a solid foam core surrounded by down, particularly tricky as the cushions are not rectangular but quite curved. It totally renovated this piece of furniture, so now it's a very comfy couch and even serves as an occasional guest bed. And his price was about 1/2 of what I was quoted at the local foam shop. His work reflects true "old world craftsmanship," and he is so easy to work with!
