This, the main branch of the United States Post Office in the city of Roanoke, Virginia is my…read morefavorite of them all. For it's a clear example of the efficiency and excellent customer service, that throughout the years have distinguished our postal service and its dedicated employees. Even though they have had to confront competition along the way, it has only served to make it even better. For competition is the American way, where everyone benefits from it along the way. On the year 2025, the United States Postal Service (USPS) celebrated its 250th anniversary. This postal system was officially established by the Second Continental Congress on July 26, 1775, with Benjamin Franklin appointed as its first Postmaster General. It was founded to bind the nation together and facilitate secure and accessible communication among all communities. Its original intent was to ensure the inexpensive distribution of printed material to educate a democratic electorate. After the arrival of the computer, the internet, and the email, and with all the competition of private companies such as UPS and FedEx, the USPS went through some hardships. But they have remained in the hearts of every single person in our communities. We admire and look forward to the daily arrival of our mailcarier. To going to the Post Office to mail a letter or pick up a package. We enjoy buying and collecting stamps. We appreciate and respect the service that the U.S. Postal Service employees do for us. I invite you to visit their 250 Anniversary website USPS.com/250 and read the two books that they put out last year to celebrate the occasion: "Delivering for America: How the United States Postal Service Built a Nation," and the special 250th anniversary edition of "The United States Postal Service: An American History." And also, I invite you to watch my favorite movie that I watch every year around this Holiday Season: "Miracle on 34th Street." Today, I visited this post office to purchase some Forever stamps. I enjoy walking into their building and always finding it clean and filled with posters and flyers containing useful information. I enjoy taking a peak at their small little museum as you enter the building. As a contrast to this they have right in front of it, a Self-Service station with the latest electronic computer. Then there is a long, wide hallway filled with P.O. Boxes on the left, and the post office counter on the right after entering through another glass doors. They even have a branch of the Blue Eagle Credit Union inside the same building, for the convenience of their customers. In this U.S. Post Office you can not only buy stamps, send letters, mail and pick-up packages, but even purchase shipping supplies and greeting cards, among other things. The line always moves fast due to the very efficient postal clerks, who even though they move fast, give you their total attention and take their time to make you feel at home and not rushed, explaining what needs to be explained about the system to provide you with useful information. When my turn arrived, a walked over to the counter and received a warm and friendly greeting from the postal clerk. When I inquired about the latest editions of their commemorate Forever Stamps, he pulled out a box with all of them. I had time to look over them and picked a book of the one I like the most, and then proceeded to pay with my credit card. I was in and out in no time at all, after receiving not only my stamps and receipt, but a heartfelt Thank you. I walked out of this Post Office feeling proud that I was an American citizen and that I lived in this great country of ours.

The owner, Marcio Sene, was extremely unprofessional, and based on other reviews, it seems I'm not…read morealone in this experience. I came in to return 4 Amazon curtains that looked completely identical- same packaging and no labels to distinguish them. Marcio told me to "take it up with Amazon," so I left and spent 40 minutes on the phone with an Amazon rep. They reassured me several times that if I placed all the curtains in one box, UPS could process the return with a single label since they were all from the same order. When I came back to the store and tried to explain this to Marcio, he immediately cut me off, saying I had 10 minutes because the store was closing soon. When I showed him the QR codes, he raised his voice, repeating "one QR code per package" over and over and even started snapping his fingers at me. He kept saying, "Amazon knows the rules, take it up with them," in a very dismissive tone. I left the store feeling humiliated and upset. While I understand it was close to closing time and I may have been misinformed from Amazon, his rudeness, raised voice, and overall attitude were completely unnecessary and unprofessional. I was also extremely frustrated after two failed attempts to return the items and a 40-minute call with Amazon that turned out to be a complete waste of time. Rather than showing any patience or willingness to help, he chose to be rude and dismissive. I will not be returning to this location, and honestly, the store would be much better off with a new owner.

Went here today and as everyone else has already stated, Marcio Sene/Owner was incredibly…read moredisrespectful and belligerent. He seemed to enjoy it as he had smirks on his face while acting out with his rude behavior. I had 4 boxes in my arm and after returning one, I told him I had more returns. It was hard to miss. I stared at a minimum 3x, that I had additional returns. He still tried to skip to the gentleman behind me while I'm at the counter!!! I had to state loudly, Excuse me. I am not done. I told you I have more packages. He looked at me and smirked. It was a very deliberate action. Not to mention I'm visibly pregnant. He is a jerk and it's clear from all these negative reviews and the reviews on Google that he might actually enjoy mistreating people. I hope his store loses business until there is a new owner or until he learns how to treat people. It's unfortunate but I plan to contact UPS corporate to escalate my experience and the experience of everyone else. This is very serious and while this may be just one store, word of mouth is everything.
