Due to online shopping, couriers are often seen in the streets and alleys. Daily collection and signing of packages has become a part of people's lives.
Couriers are actually a type of postman.
When the post office was first established, people basically went to the post office to pick up letters. So when did the postman appear?
The earliest postmen were called postmen or messengers. In the 19th century, European and American countries had the profession of postman. At that time, there were no stamps, and the earliest postmen had to walk to deliver letters, which was not efficient, and it was a slow delivery.
Subsequent stamps for mailing, post boxes and mailboxes for letters were born.
Now the postman in our mouth belongs to the postal courier under China Post, belongs to the employees of state-owned enterprises, and in addition to wages, there are five social insurances and one gold as a guarantee.
The courier, that is, the courier brother in our mouth, whose income is composed of a guarantee and a commission, the courier company gives the courier a certain basic salary, plus a delivery commission. But most couriers don't have social security. It is estimated that with the development of society, this problem will be solved.
