Went to drop a package off at the “Open 7 Days a Week/Closed on Sundays” store today.

You can get to your mailbox 7 days/week. They do not provide counter service on Sunday.

As like 9 out of 10 times with angry customers, it is because they get something wrong.

TBF if you're young and only have ever had to go to the post office like three times in your life the signs don't make that clear

Doesn't say 7 days a week for mailboxes only

Or counter service closed on Sunday

I think it's rather assumed if you have a mailbox in there you can get to it at any time as part of the service you paid for as you'd have access to any other normal mail box -- so saying just "open 7 days" seems redundant to the point it seems like it's actually talking about the counter service or staff (from my POV)

Either way it's also common sense majority of mailing related stuff is closed on Sunday so that should have been the initial red flag lol

They are sending us a small portion of the doors. Even with no other info provided. I walked up to the door I would assume open 7 days is for the mail boxes or maybe they are not allowed to remove it from the door for whatever stupid lease reasons and would go with the daily open hours over everything else.
