Did you ever wonder what it's like working in a fish cannery in Alaska? Matt talks about his experience working in an Alaska cannery for six weeks over the summer. He found out about the work through a friend, and saw it as an opportunity to do a "hard re-start" of his life after being disillusioned with work in the hospitality industry. He talks about the work he did at the bottom of the totem pole as a 'fish processor', how much money he was earning and what one could potentially earn, and how the experience gave him tons of perspective on his relatively privileged lifestyle in San Diego. He also talks about what career he's interested in jumping into next: advertising.
