Thanks Larry, I actually had a lot of experience with TDN over several years. I started out with a route from 1st to 8th & from Priest to Hardy. After a few months someone quit and my route expanded to Roosevelt. I picked up my papers at the 7-11 on 8th just East of Priest. As far as ditching inserts, I don't remember if I ever did but if I did, I had a lot of apartment complexes on my route and I'm sure their dumpsters came in handy for that. After 2 or 3 years, I moved to the TDN office and did the mail route. There were about 150-200 papers being mailed at that time so it paid pretty good compared to a regular route. I would also fill in for 2 or 3 guys on vacation duty in the 8th to 13th & Mill to Hardy area.(picked up papers at DQ on Mill) After the temp work dried up I took a route from 8th to 13th & Priest to Hardy after doing the mail route. This was a good route since I lived on 9th St. When late baseball practices in High School became a problem I went back to the Republic and the early mornings. It was fun (except for collecting) and I liked having my own money. It's a shame that it's not safe for kids today to deliver papers on their bikes like we did. Tempe truly WAS a great place to grow up. OK, who's next?
