Like lots of college grads, Daniel Seddiqui was having a hard time finding a job. But despite more than forty rejections, he knew there were opportunities out there. So he set out on an extraordinary quest: fifty jobs in fifty states in fifty weeks. And not just any jobs. His goal was as much to explore America as to explore different careers, so he chose jobs that reflected the culture and economy of each state.Working as everything from a cheesemaker in Wisconsin, a border patrol agent in Arizona and a meatpacker in Kansas to a lobsterman in Maine, a surfing instructor in Hawaii and a football coach in Alabama, Daniel chronicles how he adapted to the wildly differing people, cultures, and environments. From one week to the next he had no idea what hed be doing, where hed be sleeping, what hed be eating, or how hed be received. He even became a roving news item, appearing on CNN, Fox News, World News Tonight, MSNBC and the Today Showwhich was good preparation for his stint as a TV weatherman.Tackling challenge after challengeovercoming anxiety about working four miles underground in a West Virginia coalmine, learning to walk on sixfoot stilts (in a full Egyptian king costume) at an Florida amusement park, racing the clock as a pitcrew member at an Indiana racetrack Daniel completed his journey a changed man. In this book he shares stories about the people he met, the lessons he learned and explains the five principles that kept him going.
