Courier Day in Russia
December 17 · Level 7 · #747 of 2238
Courier Day is an unofficial professional holiday for the people who bring parcels, meals and documents, often faster than we can get hungry. It is a reason to say thank you to those who cross the city every day on foot, on scooters and behind the wheel.
How it is celebrated: companies thank their staff, hand out small gifts and run contests, while customers leave warm reviews and tips.
The word "courier" came through French from the Latin verb currere, "to run", so a courier is, literally, a runner.
