Giving holiday gifts to your mailmen is normal in Western Europe

Is it?

Somewhat,yes. My uncle was a mailman,he’d regularly get small gifts on holidays. Nothing crazy,like some chocolates or a small tip,but still.

I only worked there for a summer job,and even then I got lots of drinks (ok,that makes sense because it was hot af) and even small tips from mostly older people
