Saddle up, everyone, because you're about to take a deep dive into the fascinating world of National Postal Workers Day. Yup, you heard it right — it's a day dedicated to those who battle rain, sun, and the occasional overly chatty neighbourhood's dog to get us our mail.
It's national postal workers day on the 12th December.
Did you know National Postal Workers Day (try saying that five times fast!) didn't just sprout up overnight? It's an event that has been steadily growing in popularity since we started seeing mentions crop up online. Our trusty detective work tells us we can trace its origins back to 2012, all thanks to exorbitantly online chatters who turned it into an annual appreciation moment for our hearty postal workers.
On the 12th of December 2016, National Postal Workers Day hit its peak popularity. As our stats show — a roaring 9781 mentions of it online. No, we haven't made a typo — that's nine thousand, seven hundred and eighty-one mentions! Now that's what we call a lot of postal worker love!
Postal workers, as one would rightly guess, do a lot more than just delivering letters and packages. They are the unsung heroes who connect us to our loved ones, help online businesses thrive, and even act as the 'unofficial watchdog' of the neighbourhood. Rain or shine, they're out there living a real-life game of Frogger, dodging obstacles and making sure that your mail gets to you.
So, how best to celebrate these unsung heroes? Words of gratitude are always a good start, or perhaps a small token gift. But remember, our postal workers are on a schedule — so maybe skip that 3-hour monologue about your stamp collection for now.
