What would help is if the folks in line had their shit together & forms filled out before they get to the desk. lol And a basic ability to speak english would help too.
It's always been very quick for me once I get to the counter at the post office, and yes, what slows the line down are the idiots who seem to have not been paying attention when taught things like how to write an address on an envelope in 2nd or 3rd grade. I watched someone ahead of me once with a package they were mailing. They screwed up something on the address, so the person at the counter pointed them to where to write the address and return address and had them step aside to do that while serving another customer. They came back, and had done the EXACT SAME THING, just on a new side of the box! I honestly don't know HOW that clerk kept her patience when that person managed to screw up all 6 sides of the box and still hadn't gotten an address on it right (IIRC, they kept switching the location of the address and return address). That's when you just want to tell them go use Fed Ex. Then again, I'd have probably been tempted to just accept the package at that point and let them understand their problem when it got delivered back to their own house.

And, yes, even though all those forms are available all along the walls and tables you pass as you stand in line, people would wait until they got to the counter to start filling them out.
