German term

Dienstmann

German to English Marketing Tourism & Travel
Wo gibt's denn sowas.....
..... eine bunte Szene und die Stadt, ein einziges großes Shoppingcenter. Mit vielfältiger Auswahl, einem „Dienstmann“ und Service der Sonderklasse.

Auskunft des Tourismusbüros: Die Stadt beschäftigt einen Herren, der den Einkäufern u.a. die Pakete etc. zum Auto trägt, den man aber auch zum Blumenzustellen engagieren kann, usw. Dienstmann wie Hans Moser im Film.
