Delivered the New York Post to the tenement buildings near East 179th st everyday in the 1950s. Highlight was placing them in a shopping cart and sometimes walking up to the 6th floor for a delivery.

Delivering meat packages via bicycle from a butcher store near Tremont Ave & Southern blvd. Pretty heavy when walking it up to the 6th floor. Got 25 cents per package from the butcher and usually 10 cent tip from the customers
