This story is about my journey to find fulfilling and interesting work; my search for my ultimate purpose in life. It describes stories of my early misadventures in entrepreneurship and my later misadventures in trying to a find a "normal" job. It's about the maddening struggle of the job search, how to avoid some of the pitfalls that I fell victim to, how to succeed, and why success in the traditional job market isn't always what it seems. It's about the real struggle of entrepreneurship: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Most of all, it's about never giving up, even when the journey takes you to very dark places.
