50 jobs in 50 states in 50 weeks

A Californian man went from being bored in a dead end job to getting 50 different jobs in 50 different US states in 50 weeks.

Dan Seddiqui, 27, of Los Altos, decided he would prove there were jobs out there and he was going to try as many as possible in just one year.

So he left his office job and tried everything from being a lobster catcher, a jazz conductor, a TV weatherman and even a Las Vegas wedding planner.

Now he is set to write a book about his journey, reports the LA Times.

He said: “My favourite job was probably as a bartender in Louisiana in the middle of Mardi Gras. I got to meet so many great people.

“My least favourite was trying to be a lobster-man. I learned that I got very seasick, and that lobsters do a lot of pinching.”
