    I was briefly a walker messenger for Amazon Prime Now when it first came out in NYC. Amazon did all their deliveries through third party messenger services at the time to cut labor costs. It was one of the toughest jobs I had ever done. 2 hour windows in a 10 hour shift to make multiple deliveries virtually anywhere in the city from the warehouse in Midtown. The pay was terrible and this was during the winter I learned first hand that you need to dress properly because of all the sweating because you're carrying multiple deliveries in a huge military style backpack. My first routes when the temperature dipped I made the mistake of wearing multiple layer of cotton shirts and sweaters that virtually did nothing to keep me warm. I thought I was gonna die from hypothermia. I had to go out and spend money to buy long johns and wool sweaters just to keep myself warm. I only did the gig for 2 months before quitting. Also my dispatcher for the messenger company stole my tips as well. Supreme Systems is the company name. They're still around. The white guy Sean who owns the company is a complete POS dirtbag who lives in one of those ivory towers in LIC. That experience was legit modern day slavery. Props to people like Boone who can work the hustle like this because messenger jobs are really not for everyone.

It’s a really tough way to make a living long term but I still miss it some days.

Nothing amount of money can make you happy. Only YOU can make you happy. Rich people continue to grind because they are never happy.

      For two to three years it might be great seeing a Big City from different aspects. After that the wear and tear on your body, the fact that not many women would want to date "a messenger" there is no growth, doubt you will achieve any measure of Financial Stability, no health insurance. Definitely not by any stretch of the imagination a "Dream Job." For a young kid 19-22 it might be ok, after that move on to something else because people's praises and goodwill does nothing for your bank account. And at the end of each day sitting in his lonely room he has to have deep religious convictions or achieve a state of higher consciousness not to keep asking himself "What If?"

      True that you won't get rich doing this, but you can make a decent middle class living, at least as a bike messenger, not sure how the income of a foot messenger compares.
      I never had issues dating when I was a messenger.

    I couldn't do what this man is doing but at least he is making an honest days work. It's true you get no respect doing this kind of work. I did it for a while in btwn jobs and it's not for the faint of heart, esp if you're grinding it out in the rain or god forbid snow on a shitty bike. A lot of people who choose this line of work lead alternate lifestyles or have certain personalities that truly prohibit them from ever having a "normal" job. You really have to have that kinda edge about you to do messenger work for a living long term. I hope this man can find something better though if he hadn't already. Maybe a street vendor? Working for UPS? He deserves to be making enough to be comfortable and maybe meet someone to spend the rest of his life with

    I did this for a few months. It was terrible pay. The last day I worked was when we had the blackout in NYC and I JUST missed getting into an elevator. Never worked again.

    7 miles isn't too tiring. I have done 17 miles (from Queens Mall to Columbus Circle in Manhattan down to 33rd St, back up to 59th St and then back to Queens Mall). Walking is good for you.

      If everyone was a bike messenger there would be no one to send/receive packages.
