Jobs - Paper Boy

Okay, don't laugh. It's a job and it can be a darn good paying one if you have a good route. Being a newspaper delivery boy isn't what it used to be many years ago. Today, newspapers are much more efficiently run and the delivery services themselves have been upgraded drastically. Today's paper boy doesn't work in any place near as hard as the paper boy of the 1970s. So if you're reasoning this is something that you don't want to do, you might think differently after reading this enumerate of exactly what a paperboy does and gets paid.

Paper boys of the 21st century have it made. Of policy this isn't a job that a 10 year old is going to be able to do anymore, at least not if he wants to make the big bucks. Today's paper routes are much larger than they were years ago. So in order to work today's routes you're going to need a car, preferably one with a lot of trunk space. An Suv, van or truck may even help. Years ago, a route was maybe 100 papers. Today, a route can be up to 1000 papers if you get a nothing else but good route.

The first thing you need to do is caress the local newspaper in your area and tell them you want to route. They'll ask you where you live and try to assign you one that is close by. They will ask you if you have a vehicle. When you get hired, they will give you a destination to go to in order to pick up your papers. Yes, you do have to pick them up yourself. They don't deliver them to your door. On normal days there won't be anything more to do than to pick up the papers and throw them in your car. But on Sundays things are a puny different. The Sunday paper comes in sections and before you can deliver each paper you have to put the sections together. This can be very time consuming, so on Sunday you best be prepared to get up a puny earlier and work a puny longer. But it's worth it because the Sunday papers are very high-priced today and the commissions you get on them are very nice.

The 2009 Import and Export Market for Printed Maps, Hydrographic Charts, Wall Maps, Topographical Plans, and Globes Excluding Book Form in Australia Overview

On the demand side, exporters and strategic planners focusing on printed maps, hydrographic charts, wall maps, topographical plans, and globes excluding book form in Australia face a number of questions. Which countries are supplying printed maps, hydrographic charts, wall maps, topographical plans, and globes excluding book form to Australia? How important is Australia compared to others in terms of the entire global and regional market? How much do the imports of printed maps, hydrographic charts, wall maps, topographical plans, and globes excluding book form vary from one country of origin to another in Australia? On the supply side, Australia also exports printed maps, hydrographic charts, wall maps, topographical plans, and globes excluding book form. Which countries receive the most exports from Australia? How are these exports concentrated across buyers? What is the value of these exports and which countries are the largest buyers?

This report was created for strategic planners, international marketing executives and import/export managers who are concerned with the market for printed maps, hydrographic charts, wall maps, topographical plans, and globes excluding book form in Australia. With the globalization of this market, managers can no longer be contented with a local view. Nor can managers be contented with out-of-date statistics which appear several years after the fact. I have developed a methodology, based on macroeconomic and trade models, to estimate the market for printed maps, hydrographic charts, wall maps, topographical plans, and globes excluding book form for those countries serving Australia via exports, or supplying from Australia via imports. It does so for the current year based on a variety of key historical indicators and econometric models.

In what follows, Chapter 2 begins by summarizing where Australia fits into the world market for imported and exported printed maps, hydrographic charts, wall maps, topographical plans, and globes excluding book form. The total level of imports and exports on a worldwide basis, and those for Australia in particular, is estimated using a model which aggregates across over 150 key country markets and projects these to the current year. From there, each country represents a percent of the world market. This market is served from a number of competitive countries of origin. Based on both demand- and supply-side dynamics, market shares by country of origin are then calculated across each country market destination. These shares lead to a volume of import and export values for each country and are aggregated to regional and world totals. In doing so, we are able to obtain maximum likelihood estimates of both the value of each market and the share that Australia is likely to receive this year. From these figures, rankings are calculated to allow managers to prioritize Australia compared to other major country markets. In this way, all the figures provided in this report are forecasts that can be combined with internal information sources for strategic planning purposes.

After the papers are put together you will have a route sheet to look at. This will have the addresses of every subscriber. You best either know the area well or have a map with you or you're going to get very lost and your job is going to take you all day to complete. This is not good when you have habitancy who are expecting their paper by 7 Am.

After you have delivered all your papers, you return home and record in to the main office that the route for that day has been completed. They'll ask you the time of completion and how long it took you. If they see you're taking longer than staggering you may not keep your job long as this will lead to unhappy customers.

Years ago, when papers were 10 cents, you got paid 2 cents on every paper, or 20 percent. Today, the percentages are closer to 30 percent and with papers going for 50 cents a pop during the week and .00 on Sunday, you can make a nice part time revenue for an hour of work a day.

Being a paper boy isn't what it used to be.

The 3'6" gauge Pichi Richi Railway is located in the mid north of South Australia and winds its way from Pt Augusta to Quorn over the Flinders Ranges through the picturesque Pichi Richi Pass. In the first half of the 20th century, this line formed both the transcontinental route from Sydney to Perth, and was part of the Central Australia line (made famous by "The Old Ghan") until the 1957 when the standard gauge line to Maree was built. In the early 70's the Pichi Richi Railway was formed to preserve and operate this line. It is now the only operational section left of the once extensive network of narrow gauge lines north and east of Pt Augusta and remains open due to the dedicated group of volunteers who do an outstanding job running the railway. This video follows on from Part 1and begins with Silverton Tramway 22 and W934 shunting the train shortly after arriving at Quorn. Brill railmotor 106 then arrives at Quorn with a private charter before the return journey of the Afghan Express to Pt Augusta with W934 is featured.
