Well, I'd be delighted to consider doing so!
If you could just pop me one of those flyers round to my address in Nottinghamshire, England, I shall spend several hours reading it, making up my mind and then get back to you...

tip? yeah, here's one. Start selling your body instead, there's much more money in it. I did but by crikey, it didn't 'alf hurt
Joke, by the way! Bad taste, I know, I know...

HeHeHe
I think that's the best plan
I had a paper round too, delivering 'free' papers. it's flipping slave labour! They even tried to claim that I wasn't delivering to every house, my dad played hell with them.
I ended up working on a market stall at weekends. I had to get up at 4 am and work 'till 6 pm. for £5 a day. OK, this was quite a while ago but when you consider that, back then, my lunch of a jacket potato with baked beans (which I had to pay for myself) cost 50p, you can appreciate just how shitty my pay was! My flippin' dinner cost 10% of my wages and it was the cheapest dinner in town!
I'm all for young people trying to earn a living, but some employers just take the P**s. I would never let my daughter do a paper round or such like.

i don't know..
paper rounds round here are pretty lucrative!
i did all 3 when i was 14.. the mornings, afternoons and sunday.. earnt me £50 a week for little work and at xmas i earned a packet...
I did a paper round up until i was 18.....
the money was just too good to give up!
although i gave up the afteroon one quite quickly as it annoyed me my pay didn't change
I'd do one again if i didn't have to be in work at 8
