>He quit after a few years because of low pay, long hours, traveling, and unexpected layoffs

In my area of Canada, demand for this work is so high you can work as much or little as you want, independently, for $50+ an hour. Nothing to sneeze at. Just need that entrepreneurial itch.



And a license, insurance, transportation, a place to sleep, eat, proably storage for all your stuff that doesn't fit in your vehicle, etc.


This was over 10 years ago in North Dakota.


So what does he do now?

I know many white collar workers who also lost their jobs to sudden layoffs a little over 10 years ago...


He works for a DAO organizing meetings and stuff and does moderating/customer support type stuff for that blockchain
