oral history... someone needs to get the story of the messenger

the messenger industry seems to be on its last leg
it has gone beyond the fax machine
it has even gone beyond the computer and its electronic documents in PDF form
this may also be an issue of economy
maybe people are not throwing around money from billable hours like they once were

there are some old school guys out there
there are some guys out there who seem like they have been out there since the beginning of time
I start to wonder if the "lifers" will be able to make enough money for it to be worth it
this industry may go the way of the dinosaur

the word on the street is that there is not as much money to be made as there once was
minimums and guarantees still exist along with in house gigs
but from what I am told the high dollar commission gig is not what it once was
although I do see a few guys out there still hustling

who has the camera and the microphone
there is definitely a story to be told
