Also - depending on how the newspaper does it's delivery (inhouse, outsourced, or otherwise), you can make some very good money doing route subs for people.

Here's how it works - M-Sat I got paid $.17 a paper to deliver them. I had about 180 stops M-F, about 200 on Saturday, and 250 on Sunday. On Sunday I got paid $.32 a paper to deliver. That's not terrible jack on it's own.

With an alternate route, many of the carriers were offering a full 150% pay for the sub. So instead of getting $.17 and $.32, they were making $.25 and just shy of $.50 a paper.

You sub on a Saturday and a Sunday for a route my size and it's $175 for about 8 hours of work. And that's straight cash homey. :p

I've often thought about it, just for a chance to meet people. I mean, there are NO women at my work. Well, there's like 5, all middle age. But I go into restaurants and I see the waiters/waitresses interacting with all kinds of people, and each other. I'm the type of person that needs to have an avenue to meet people, I can't just *meet* people.

I work full time at an Manufacturing plant on all their computer systems.

On the side, I have my photography business. I do work for various companies as high up as ESPN all the way to freelance projects at Brightroom. I do hockey for the most part so summer is my slow time. I like it though cause I enjoy hockey a lot and get paid to take pictures of it. :)
