Guilt and self-loathing.

The heaviest package of all.

A spare tube or two, 15mm wrench, pump, maybe a multi-tool.

Another considerable portion of her workload is very similar...picking up cash deposits at businesses and dropping them at the bank.

When I was a messenger in Houston in 2000 it was that sort of thing, and also a decent amount of medical drops.

I was a messenger in Houston from 90-92. I worked in the med center. Several hospitals used use to run stuff to, and from downtown, and between hospitals. I was approached about the job one Friday night at Alkek. The guy asked me if I had another bike. I used a mountain bike with slicks.
