My little PO in the back streets has extended trading hours (6.30am-6pm) and is also open Sat mornings. It's always been that way since I've lived here (16 years). The extended trading hours are to help the shiftworkers out and a lot do take advantage of those hours. It's very rare the line is long there. Even if it is, you don't wait more than a few minutes to be served. They don't do passports and they don't deliver large parcels, only small ones. They accept large parcels being sent, but anything large being delivered goes to the main PO in the CBD.

The main PO in the CBD, it's a nightmare. It's slow and the lines are usually out the door. Not to mention parking is a nightmare. At least the one in the back street, there is plenty of parking. The staff there are a lot more friendly and will go that extra mile if you need to know something.
