As a .paperboy, it was an enriching opportunity.

It taught me responsibility ,dependability and persistence.

In addition to delivering the papers - you had to collect for them.

If someone didn't pay -that was your profit!

But sometimes there was an unexpected surprise. One lady that didn't always have the payment surprised me at Christmas with a box of Hershey's chocolate bars with payment! My first tip!
