Debria Preethi Jeyarajah, 10
Debria Preethi Jeyarajah, 10, thinks the job of a postman is demanding and tiring. “The postman has to rise early to get the letters sorted for the day before he is out to deliver them. He will need a motorcycle, helmet and letters. He would have to travel far and wide if he needs to deliver the letters. Sometimes, he could make a wrong turn and arrive at the wrong place, then he needs to look for the correct address to deliver the mail.”

Each working day, a postman has to collect, sort and deliver letters, bills or important documents to many houses under the hot sun.”
