Wow, paper carrier do have a dangerous job, but this video completely does not explain the true dangers. this video is really stupid, I have been delivering newspaper for over 13 years and I have 7 paper routes. I am going to make a real documentary of a paper carrier, fuck this crap that tells nothing about the paper carrier.

@BAMDANAproductions I'm sorry that you didn't realize that this is not a serious documentary. It's supposed to be lighthearted.

That was funny for all...well, at least to us former paper carriers!

The music, cut from scene to scene, injured foot, note on breakfast at $6.13...suave!

The graveyard house was VERY different...the only story I have like that was delivering papers to an elderly-care...would deliver papers to dead people from time to time (I would get there before the nurse).

I went from carrier to mathematician...I hope you do, too.

I liked this!

Special note: PJs...too cool!

aint that the truth ...i agree with anglynn74...we are required to do more than a postman...lol need to get paid more

this video is good but it's more the lighter side of being a carrier. we're out at 1:20 am in the pitch black dark dodging tractor trailers & dogs, out in the snow sleet & rain & cold, being overworked underpaid & overtired. It's no longer a kiddie job, many adults are doing this in order to feed their families. It's a dangerous thankless job.

AND... never waste yr profits on convenience store junk food! Not only are you loading up on worthless carbs that you'll never burn off sitting in your car but the cost is almost $5-15 bucks a day! You're not making much more than that for your route daily, are you? Do the math. You're loosing money. Make a breakfast (2 hard boiled eggs, 2 turkey bacon strips, 1 toast, cup OJ and 1-2 cups coffee). You'll burn most of that off prepping yr paps at depot or in yr car. Eggs give u extra energy.
