I think this IS his resume. 17 weeks in, he’s already getting job offers via Facebook.

I’d only dispute your characterization of Daniel’s game as ‘more play than work’. It is definitely playful in spirit, but it is a also LOT of work, just in terms of the effort he’s got to be putting out, not only in making the trip, but chronicling the narrative. It is also about connecting and exposing his audience to different kinds of work. It’s got to be exhausting for him. I hope at least a few of the jobs he takes in weeks 40-50 are pieces of cake like ‘mattress tester’ and ‘toll both attendant’

Awesome. I wonder if he’ll put all 50 on his resume

Even though it is more “play” than “work”, the idea and the execution of forcing him out of his comfort zone is really something, few people could do that every week.
