Putin’s
bodyguards are working food delivery and taxi jobs as wages stagnate工资一直不涨，普京保镖兼职送快递、开出租
Employees of the Federal Guard
Service (FSO) in Russia have turned to side jobs, such as taxi driving and
courier work, due to stagnant wages and infrequent bonuses.由于工资停滞不前，奖金也不能定期发放，俄罗斯联邦警卫局(Federal Guard Service)的雇员们已经开始从事副业，如开出租、送快递等。
That’s according to Baza, a
Russian online outlet believed to have links to the country’s security
services.俄罗斯一家网络媒体名叫《基地》(Baza)，据信与俄罗斯安全部门有联系，该媒体报道了上述新闻。
The FSO is tasked with protecting
senior state officials, including the President of Russia, and maintaining
security at critical sites, such as the Kremlin and the Novo-Ogaryovo estate.
Despite the sensitive nature of their roles, FSO employees earn an average
monthly salary of RUB80,000-RUB110,000 ($752–1,034), a figure that has remained
static for years due to a lack of wage indexation. Rising inflation and higher
living costs have strained household budgets, forcing many staff to seek
additional income in sectors such as e-commerce, security and delivery
services.联邦警卫局的任务是保护包括俄罗斯总统在内的高级国家级官员，维护克里姆林宫和新奥加廖沃(Novo-Ogaryovo)庄园等重要场所的安全。尽管联邦警卫局员工的角色非常敏感，但他们的平均月薪只有8万至11万卢布(相当于752美元至 1034美元)，由于他们的工资并未随着物价指数浮动，这一数字多年来一直保持不变。通货膨胀率不断攀升，生活成本越来越高，使他们的家庭预算捉襟见肘，迫使许多员工在电子商务、安保和快递服务等行业兼职，以寻求额外收入。
Dissatisfaction has been fuelled
further by cuts to bonuses, including the anticipated New Year payment, which
was expected to amount to half a month’s salary but is now likely to be
reduced. This, combined with stagnant wages, has left many feeling undervalued.
Nevertheless, many FSO employees remain in their positions to retain pension
benefits.由于奖金削减，联邦警卫局员工的不满情绪进一步加剧。他们的奖金原本包括预期的新年红包，相当于半个月的工资，但现在可能会减少。再加上工资一直没涨，许多人感到自己的价值被低估了。尽管如此，许多联邦警卫局雇员仍然坚守岗位，以保留养老金福利。
This trend highlights broader
issues of wage stagnation in Russia, with many courier salaries now reportedly
exceeding some entry-level IT roles.这一趋势凸显了俄罗斯工资停滞不前带来的更广泛的问题，据报道，许多快递员的工资现在已经超过了一些初级信息技术(IT)职位。
