Did you forget “mail carrier” or “postal worker” were terms?
Postal workers maybe?
I’ve heard them called mail carriers. It’s more precise, for example my mum is a postal worker, but doesn’t carry mail (she has an office job with postal services).
Not exactly a story, but an ad from Australia post showing their evolution of delivery over the decades. https://youtu.be/T-ItHe5WxE4
I remember ads shown about how dogs run up to posites etc, so checked out their website.
Here are some other videos from them you might like.

And a postal worker. https://youtu.be/teLmg_2vF0w
I’m not associated with Auspost , but did watch the videos and OP, hope it helps. Posted on mobile so missed some details.
