The postman is a very important person in our society though he does not enjoy a good social status. He is very close to the community in which he lives. His daily life is full of work.

He gets up very early in the morning and starts his work sorting out letters, money orders, parcels etc. According to their place of destination or as he thinks convenient. The sorting activity over, he then puts on his uniform and sets out on his daily round to distribute the letters, parcels etc. to the right addresses. During the course of his distribution activity, however, he also collects letters and parcels from people.

In the afternoon, he again starts sorting out outgoing letters or parcels or money orders. In the course of his professional duty, he builds up familiar social relationships with people, which is why he is a very popular figure in his locality.
