Have you ever wondered how all those packages get to your doorstep so quickly? In Beijing, couriers zoom around the city every day, delivering millions of parcels! That’s a lot of work, and it’s important they get a chance to rest.
Enter the ‘warm-hearted lounge’ in the Jianguomen area of Beijing. 🏠 It’s a special place set up just for couriers to take a break, recharge their phones, grab a snack, and relax for a bit before heading back out.
The lounge was created because lots of people realized how hard couriers work to make sure we get our goodies on time. With online shopping bigger than ever, couriers are super important!
Not only couriers, but also food delivery riders and drivers for ride-hailing apps are getting support. As these new jobs become more common, helping these workers stay happy and healthy is a big priority.
One courier at the lounge said, “It’s so nice to have a place to rest. It makes my day easier and I feel appreciated.” 😊
Isn’t it cool to see communities coming together to support those who keep things moving? Maybe next time you get a package or your food arrives hot and fresh, you’ll think of the hard work behind it!
