ha. i dont think i could do it. my friends used to deliver pizza. they made pretty good money. if i had a beater i'd do it. but with my odo over 100k already, i dont need any more miles than what i already put on it daily driving it.

I thought about before i got a job at the theater. The little caesars by my house had a 3 mile radius for delivery so it wouldn't have been bad.

I thought about doing it.. averaging 15 an hour (papa johns) isn't bad but 109K on the clock and having to work every friday night no exceptions was too much for me. i like my weekly get togethers.

My dad owned a package delivery company(not packages as in wieners) that I used to work for. Once in a while a hot delivery would be called in after I dropped the van off and I had to do it in my GTA. The **** would get there a lot faster I can tell you that. The fact that I had the car and I was pissed I was working late.

I say its worth it if you have a beater, but not a nice car. This is what I do for work, and the money is good actually (for a college student). I have a 95 beretta Z26 that I deliver with and drive in the winter. I put that thing through hell, the faster you can get to your destination the more money you usually make... lol. I bought the car a 2.5 years ago with 30000 miles on it and it was actually stored in the winter, it is now approaching 100000. So yeah racking up miles is a big issue with this type of work. This is how I pay for the Z28 so I would say its worth it for me. Nothing major has gone wrong with the beretta either so thats why its been profitble, I'm hoping it will hold out for another year until i get out of school and get a real job.

Exactly. I have done a few cold dish caterings at the deli I used to work at, I'd be out and called in on a moment's notice if I were in town. I didn't mind, no hot dishes meant no sauces, and it would fill the tank for the week and more so whatever.
