Someone quit their corporate job on April 8, 2016, and is releasing that recording now, a decade later. The next day they flew to Nairobi to film and invest in themselves. They chose freedom over another job, rejecting the corporate path and the YouTube star route entirely.

I recorded myself quit my job 10 years ago. Now, on the 10-year anniversary, I want to make this public to help you quit your job. I'm doing it. I'm doing it. April 8th, Friday, 2016 will be my last day here. It's pretty nice, but it's just not it. It's not enough. Look, I'm going to quit, and the next day I I'm going to Africa. Okay, where in Africa? I am going to Nairobi. Just arrived in Kenya. That's awesome. To make a video. I want to invest in myself, to be honest. I can't— I don't want another job. You want to become a YouTube star? I don't want to be a YouTube star. I just— I want to be free. Also, like, I'm not fit for the corporate life, man. I'm not. My mouth is too fucking blunt. I'm gonna keep getting those HR violations if I stay here. If this isn't working where you should be, but you shouldn't be here. Yeah. For the past year, I've only interacted with you, Joel, and Mike. Yeah. And like, the world has 7 billion people. It doesn't have 3, even though you guys are amazing people. But there's so much out there, and I feel like life should be about more, more than this. Thank you. For an incredible 10-year journey.
