Thats a wonderful idea. Two great points that resonated with me:
1. Having a commitment that forces you out of bed.
2. Involving yourself in something that's not your regular normal "world" can be so refreshing.
I would like to try this at some point. But I don't how I would start finding a job like that without contacts. Any insight on that from the OP would be great.

- Alex_MJ 13y agoAwesome article! Out of curiosity, how do you handle conflicts? Like, say you have an important customer who wants to meet in the morning, or things have fallen behind and DEAR GOD I NEED THOSE HOURS TO MAKE IT WORK? I'd assume lots of get-things-done-in-advance so things don't get to that stage, but if that fails and it becomes one-or-the-other, how do you handle it?
- jessepollak 13y agoThat doesn't really happen — I deliver before most everyone else is awake and I rarely have strict deadlines where adding an extra hour (most of which I would already have to do to get to work) would matter. The couple times that I have had to back out, I either got my roommate (and co-founder) to take my spot or my employers have been understanding.
