A Postman of Post Office
A postman is a useful member of
society, Sohan Lal is the postman of our area. He is a very honest man. He does
his duty very sincerely. He delivers the dak regularly and in time.
He brings messages of joy and
sorrow. He has a big bag which he hangs on the handle of his bicycle. In this
bag he puts the letters, parcels and money orders which he has to deliver.
Sometimes, when a parcel is heavy, he has to place it on the carrier of his
bicycle.
He delivers the post in sun and
shower. He never desists from his duty. Sometimes, when an illiterate person
asks him to read a letter for him, he never refuses to do so.
He has an arduous duty. But his
salary is low.
He is glad that he gets a uniform
once in a year. In spite of being poor, he is not greedy.
When he is offered a present of
money or kind on any festival, he politely refuses to accept it. He is, in
fact, contented with his lot, although he has to live from hand to month.
People wait for him eagerly. He
is a great messenger. It is, however, a pity when people complain against him
or take him to task for a minor mistake, such as throwing letters in a wrong
house or throwing them in the open. Of course, he should not do so and should
be more careful, but this point can be explained to him in a polite language.
It is now a matter of joy that a
postman is now promoted to be a clerk in the post office after some years of
service. Let us hope some more steps will be taken to improve the lot of
Postmen.
