From "Courier Rider" to "Mobile Pioneer" (Theme)

He is conscientious and conscientious, shuttling through the streets and alleys every day, not delaying the punctual delivery and collection of express mail; he is selfless and dedicated, and whenever he is free, he takes the "love scissors" and gives free door-to-door haircuts to the lonely and widowed elderly and the disabled...... Ordinary but also light, rooted in Taoyuan Town, Wujiang District, Suzhou City, engaged in the express delivery industry for 18 years, party member Lu Shilong not only meticulously guarded the post, but also firmly believed in the original intention, where to do good things, regardless of gains and losses, do not demand returns, and fulfill the promise of "serving the people" with practical actions.
Win respect with hard work
In 2006, after being introduced by a friend, Lu Shilong came to Taoyuan Town and became a "courier brother". At the beginning, Lu Shilong was mainly responsible for the express delivery and receiving tasks in Tongluo area, although the number was not large, but due to the complex township routes and scattered households, he always had to spend double the time to complete the task, arriving at the company at 7 o'clock in the morning every day and not getting off work until 7 or 8 o'clock in the evening. At that time, there was no mobile phone navigation, and it was all up to the brain to remember the road, in order not to delay the customer's time, Lu Shilong sent the mail, while sketching the road map of each household in his mind, and forced himself to get acquainted with the "local situation" in half a month.
Although he is engaged in the most ordinary job, Lu Shilong firmly believes that "three hundred and sixty lines, the line is the champion", and no matter how small the sail is, it can sail far. Over the past 18 years, he has taken every express delivery seriously, and has never had the problem of losing the piece, not only growing step by step into the company's business backbone, but also turning customers into friends, and everyone is willing to affectionately call him "Master Lu".
From youth to middle age, the life principle of "working diligently and being a down-to-earth person" has always accompanied Lu Shilong. In 2017, Lu Shilong went to a bank to receive workers' wages, and after returning to the SF Express branch, he opened the salary bag to count the money and found that there were 100 extra pieces of 100 yuan in it, totaling 10,000 yuan. At that time, Lu Shilong didn't bother to eat lunch, and immediately rode to the bank, explained the situation to the window staff and returned the money in full.
Over the years, Lu Shilong has proved himself with hard work and simple character, and has also won the respect of the society, and has successively won the SF Express Moral Fashion Award, Excellent Cultural Messenger, Outstanding Employee of Suzhou District, District Branch Pacesetter and Business Star, 15-year Long-term Service Award and other honors, and last year also won the "Most Beautiful Courier" in Suzhou. Today, Lu Shilong actively imparts his work experience to newcomers, cultivates a group of business backbones, and also spreads that perseverance and perseverance.
Serve the people like Lei Feng
Lu Shilong was born in a military family, and when he was young, he often listened to his elders talk about Lei Feng's deeds. Under the influence of his ears and eyes, he is also determined to become a person who serves the people like Lei Feng.
One day in 2015, Lu Shilong went to receive the express mail as usual, and suddenly met four children about 6 years old wandering by the bridge. Lu Shilong intuitively judged that these children might be lost. After inquiry, it turned out that several people were foreign children living in a nearby village, and they ran out to play, and forgot the way back. At that time, it was winter, the four children were hungry and cold, and their faces were already blue, so Lu Shilong hurriedly went to the steamed bun shop to buy them three hot steamed buns to replenish their energy, and then took advantage of his familiarity with the situation to send the children home safely four or five kilometers away. Seeing the safe return of the children, the anxiously looking parents grabbed Lu Shilong's hand to express their gratitude, and Lu Shilong left in a hurry after a few words, without even leaving his name and phone number.
For Lu Shilong, serving the people is not a slogan, but practicing the original mission in daily work and at critical moments. In 2020, Lu Shilong picked up a briefcase on the way to deliver the express, opened it and found that there were more than 20,000 yuan in cash and various documents in the bag. After contacting the owner, Lu Shilong waited nearby for a long time before waiting for the owner. At that time, the owner took out 1,000 yuan in cash to express his gratitude, but Lu Shilong politely refused, saying: "Collecting gold is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, and I just did what I had to do." ”
It can be said that wherever Lu Shilong's express car goes, good things will be done. And his "warm-heartedness" is out of the yearning for an upward, kind and harmonious social atmosphere, "When I was in my hometown, I was doing animal epidemic prevention, and I was responsible for more than a dozen villages. I've always believed that, as the song says, if everyone gives a little love, the world will be a better place."
Become a "partner" of grassroots governance
"Master Lu's hair is cut so well and quickly, my legs and feet are inconvenient, with his help, I can get a free haircut at the door of my house, it's so convenient!" Not long ago, at the Party and Mass Service Center in Shuijiagang Village, Taoyuan Town, a group of grandfathers and grandmothers chatted while waiting for Lu Shilong to give them a haircut. A pair of scissors and a clipper flew up and down, and Lu Shilong on the side operated it well, and after a while, the old people's hair was trimmed fresh and clean.
In 2022, Taoyuan Town will innovatively set up a "Red Knight" volunteer service team to mobilize express delivery brothers to actively participate in grassroots affairs and contribute to the high-quality development of the town. As a party member, Lu Shilong did not hesitate to sign up to become a "red knight", and returned to his "old business" before express delivery, giving full play to his expertise in hairdressing to carry out volunteer services. Nowadays, Lu Shilong often takes advantage of his rest time to go to the surrounding villages and communities to give haircuts to the elderly and the disabled, which greatly enhances the happiness of the masses.
In the past two years, government departments have vigorously improved the care measures and protection of the rights and interests of new forms of business and new employment groups, from building warm service stations, providing all kinds of warm-hearted services to encouraging participation in grassroots governance, Lu Shilong sees it in his eyes and enjoys it in his heart, and feels that he has a bigger stage for his work. In addition to being a volunteer barber, Lu Shilong also served as a "new role" such as a fraud prevention propagandist, a civilized traffic counselor, and a civilized city volunteer, and became a "mobile probe" for party building to lead grassroots governance.
As a courier who comes and goes in the wind and rain, Lu Shilong is well aware of the hardships of new forms of business and new employment groups, and he also wants to do something for this group with the organization. Last summer, the Tongluo community set up an outdoor worker workstation, and Lu Shilong often passed by to send and receive couriers. Once, Lu Shilong saw a takeaway brother who wanted to go into the workstation to get water, but because of a notification that an order was about to expire, he rushed outside again, the sun was scorching, and he didn't have time to take a sip of water. So, he bought a box of mineral water and a box of salt soda out of his own pocket, "so that everyone can take it and go, and they can replenish water when they are in a hurry." Lu Shilong said that the next morning, when he passed by the workstation again, he was very happy to see the mineral water and salt soda that had almost been taken away.
"In recent years, the rise and growth of new employment groups, and the country's policies and supporting services have gradually improved, which makes us truly feel the attention and care of the party and the government for new employment groups. Lu Shilong said that in the future, he will let customers experience high-quality services through his own efforts, strive to be a courier who satisfies customers, and strive to be a pioneer courier in the construction of service areas.
