SPR: Newspaper Delivery Route

Now that I am on unpaid "vacation," I started looking for a new part-time job. I came accross something for a delivery route and when I mentioned it my DH got all upset and said you DONT want that although he was unable to verbalize WHY. It would be for 2-3 hours starting around 3 a.m. and pays 400-600 every two weeks with no money collection. It would be before DS and even DH wake up and would allow me to be home with DS everyday. I am aware of the bad weather scenarios but other than that is there a downside I'm missing? I realize I'd have to go to bed a bit earlier than normal but I dont see how this is a bad scenario. Any input is greatly appreciated. Sometimes speaking to DH is likeChat Icon

maybe he's worried about you being out at that time by yourself. but i think you can use your car..so its not like you're walking around.

I personally wouldn't do it, too many drunks on the road at that hour. I knew someone that did this and she got hit by a drunk driver that ran. It is god's miracle that she is alive today.

You also have to factor in the major wear and tear on your car, especially the brakes from stopping and going so much.
