Hell, I even have the necessary security clearances (from my prior service). No bites, and I hadn't even thought about money. I just wanted something to do (my Ex was stationed there, after I got out of the service).
I went to school instead. I think that was the better choice.
The biggest aspect would be time: are you a student as well as a courier? If so, you'll need another person to go hot when you are in class. Having another person on board: make sure they know the risk and liability of the job. Last thing you want is John Q Public coming after you for something your partner did. Or even worse, your partner's parents suing them b/c he slid under a vehicle making a Friday night beer drop and broke his spine. Or what about a bunch of Frat boys wanting to f*ck with the guy who didn't quite get their mid-term delivered on time b/c of the weather?
I know these may sound outlandish, but they may come to fruition.
Just something for you to consider...
Ahh yes, the reality based arguement. The stuff that makes dreams seem dreamy, and possibilities foolish.
Kind of like a "good marriage".
