I got my first job when I was 12 years old. I worked as a paperboy delivering newspapers to people
in my village every morning. I used to get up very early and deliver the papers to half of the village
while my friend Ben would deliver to the other half. I used to love seeing the empty streets of the
village before anyone got up, but I used to hate the job on rainy days. I would sometimes ride my
bike to get the job done faster. Ben was luckier than me, sometimes if he couldn’t be bothered to do
his paper round, his Dad would drive him around his route in his car!
