The worst things about this job were: 1. No place to lock up the bike and you can't take it into the building. 2. You bring the stuff to the front desk and they make you walk around the whole block to the service entrance, then make you wait 15 minutes to be taken upstairs. 3. They give you the wrong address, adding time to the trip, and that cuts into the time you need for more jobs.
Yeah I used to go through s*** like that when I was doing messenger work he's kind of jobs got to be real lucky if you could pay your rent on time every month just as long as you get every job right 90% of the time on time obsessively punctual and incredibly fast it's really a job for Superman
I always tell him ; "Do your thing Kid" !! ✌🏾😎 Nothing is wrong with what he's doing. He's happy and doing what he loves. He's Blessed. And his heart is Gold. 💛 #oldsharpstyles
When he pointed to his helmet, I remember that cat. I used to messenger in the eighties and there were two guys who rode with helmets like that ... they used to mountain bikes in mountain bike pants with riser bars. Nice to re-live those days. I wonder if they knew my friend and my boss JL ... co-owner of Wheels messenger service.
I do not know, why dispatcher tells courier how to get to 86th st by 4 train? My experience is P/U name address, contact and delivery info. Run number and all spoken in seconds.
Nice video! Like bikes and riding. My dream ride to New York. Manhattan - big buildings and i on my Salsa El Mariachi single speed. Have nice day everything cyclists))) See you in NY dudes!
I used to be a deliveryman for postmates, then doordash. The pay is crap, but if you love biking all day and you don't mind the boss ripping you off, good for you. There's no way you can pay rent with a job like this, it's only for people who live with their parents.
At 4:10, why does such an experienced bike messenger use such a cheap lock to protect his bike? I know its light, but it also is the worst security ever. So easily cut in 1 second.
the U-Lock is nice but not versatile, it can only lock up to things that are six inches where as a cord lock can be locked to a variety of things. Also your bike is only outside 20 mins max.
Takeout delivery companies are in full swing, but they go out of business fast. The messengers are pretty much done. I'm surprised this one is still there.
YOOO the Infamous KID. Glad to see he's still making it.
dope ass vid for a 10th grade project bruh
Thank you from Manhattan ©2024
This is fantastic quality. Can easily pass for something produced by BBC, etc. Stay well.

We’re u high or something? Plenty of places to lock the bike and you need to know where to deliver service entrance etc dickwad

No bathroom.
the walk around the back or finding the package entrance was the worst. Luckily my company did business same spots so I learned it quick
Amazing, just watched the other day another documentary where Fernando was just a teen, now he is manager! Amazing!
what vid was that?
@@undertoesI think it's "Pedal (2001)".
Glad to hear all your riders wear helmets. Protecting your assets is crucial to any successful business.
Kid was always best dispatcher, knew he'd end up a bauz
The Kid is now the man
Great job in this project!!!
I always tell him ;
"Do your thing Kid" !!

Kid is the man, love my messenger family
Good Job !
Really great to watch.
Good luck for your Graduation ! ;)
very well done, Moctar. Enjoyed it
Interesting and informative video.
I saw a video of this guy when he was younger, I think he was working at Mothers.
Nope. Neither Kidd nor Carlos ever worked there. They've both pretty much been independent since they started.
I liked the video. 👍
That Guy is hard core. Respect
Any update on these guys on what are they doing now? 😊
1.29 in and got to stop to say great flim
Great job on the video

Does anyone know the name of the song at 05:13 ?
Mala Rodríguez - Por La Noche

It looks like you're using just an Excel spreadsheet to keep track of your messenger jobs. What kind of software is it?
How much game has the kid spit inside of elevators over the years??
Good work dude
I miss good dispatching

Maybe you just sucked at it.

1stPlaceDirector The pad lock is protecting his back wheel, the cable his front wheel, and the U-Lock His frame. That´s decent security.
the U-Lock is nice but not versatile, it can only lock up to things that are six inches where as a cord lock can be locked to a variety of things. Also your bike is only outside 20 mins max.
Zeke Kyser 20 mins is a lifetime to a thief.
Love.to ride and get paid out of it.....
bicycle messengers will probably be extinct within 10 years but bike delivery services may just be getting started
Takeout delivery companies are in full swing, but they go out of business fast. The messengers are pretty much done. I'm surprised this one is still there.
Messengers are NOT done
quick track, mess kollective and breakaway couriers are better
Good job on this, except for the awful music. Get rid of that and you have a great video.
More dangerous job than a police officer? Lol! Other than that, this was a cool vid. Nice job.
A lot more dangerous. Cops only have like a 1 in 30,000 chance of dying in duty.
