Lazo Post Office

The most ignorant uneducated staff who don't have a clue what they're even doing. Rude as hell staff.

I stopped by the Comox BC Post Office located next to the 19 Wing Comox RCAF base today. I left feeling like Canada Post is a third rate government run waste of resources. I don't often use this post office as it is a little out of the way, but there is never a long wait. Today, a single older lady employee was there to help. I asked to mail a cylindrical parcel \to Manitoba, she was not very helpful, and insisted that I write the address on the cylinder. I did, but asked if there was not a label that I write the address on, she just said no. Then she weighed measured and charged me an surcharge because it was a cylinder. I asked why, she just said "because! I don't know". I left it at that. Well she measured it lengthwise and width wise. The diameter she multiplied by 2. So I guess that takes care of a box that measures the same width and height as the diameter, but the cylinder surcharge? This was not on the Canada Post website as I per-calculated the charges before going. So, not happy with either the employee's attitude, and service, nor with Canada Post's lack of cylinder calculation on their website.

Pro: not busy, which is great Con: employees here are quite rude and unwelcoming. I always feel uncomfortable coming in here.

Never busy. Great to use over the holiday season.
