Both my sister and I had paper routes. My sister delivered the Union and I delivered the Bee. Both of the routes included our home in our route area. Of course, I had twice as many customers and three times the route size that she did. I didn’t mind delivering the paper every morning at 3a but I absolutely hated collecting from my customers every month.
I definitely haven’t lived a life of luxury. I’ve earned every penny I’ve ever had.
What when my two sons were very young they shared a route for the Sacramento Union. The Bee routes paid better but I refused to let them work for that piece of poop paper.
