    Post office in my country is awful

    They want to offer literally anything except postal services

    Banking, insurance, energy, phones, ISP, money transfers, passport renewals, tax payments, id verifications.

    So if you need to ship something with a prepaid label (30 seconds), you have 100 people in front of you because there’s the grandma that needs to open a new sim card and need to do full id verification (15 minutes), grandpa that wants to open a bank account to deposit the pension. And so on. You get a number in queue, but postal services have a lower priority compared to anything else.

    So, get ready to wait 1-2 hours because the auntie really needs to waste 30 minutes at the counter comparing 36 months of gas, electric, phone and internet bills to see if she can save €1/month
