Elena Miklashevich, Head of the Obukhovo Post Office, about life in the agro-town, clients and newspapers

The post office of Obukhovo of Grodno district has been holding the stamp for many years and enjoys good fame. Elena Miklashevich has been heading it since 2023 and has already earned the trust and respect of local residents.

- I grew up in Skidel, worked there in kindergarten, but when we were offered housing and work in Obukhovo, agreed with my husband without much thought. The management of SEC named after Senko provided a comfortable three-room apartment - live and rejoice! We have two daughters-schoolgirls, and here, in a relatively small Obukhovo, three schools at once: secondary education, sports and music. It's close, downtown. Conditions for the life and development of children are no worse than in the city, but the nature and air are unique! This year we will open a modern swimming pool, so another place for a family holiday will be more. Anyway, I'm just high on life in Obukhovo! Well, if you need to solve any issues in Grodno, then it is close to him: a 15-minute drive.

For Elena Miklashevich, the demand is very important:

- I know they appreciate me and look forward to me. It's expensive! The basis for successful work is a strong healthy team. Without crooking my heart, I will say that he is like this. Postal specialist and foot postman in one person Anna Pilipchuk is a storehouse of knowledge and skills, is always ready to help out, and postman driver Yulia Bartsevich is a young promising employee, she grows, develops and increases in professionalism at a rapid pace. They say that purely women's groups are problematic, but this is not about us. We are friends and understand each other literally from half a word. We have a lot of work to do! Only newspapers depending on the day of the week from 353 to 507 copies. The villagers love to read and still write a lot of press. Our clients are employees of one of the best agricultural enterprises in Belarus. Villagers appreciate “SB Belarus Today” and “Rural Gazette”, whose journalists, in their opinion, competently and soulfully acquaint their readers with the everyday life and joys of people who work on the ground. Personally, I have a favorite category – “Our partners”. With pleasure, for example, read the material about the most experienced postal worker Tamara Nikolaevna Barashko from Skidel. She's been delivering us periodicals for years, I remember her perfectly! How nice to see happy familiar faces on the pages of the newspaper. Elena Miklashevich speaks with undisguised pride about the development of postal business:

- More recently, we were pleased with the introduction of the mobile postman hardware and software complex and SMS notification of customers about receiving correspondence and parcels, and today progress is generally moving in leaps and bounds. In conclusion, Elena Sergeevna states that attention and warm, sincere attitude to customers on the serviced site must remain a necessary addition to new technological options. All this the employees of the post office Obuhovo have.
