If you are working in a job that you don't like, this episode may just convince you to try your hand at running a game store. Dan gives a bunch of compelling reasons why running your own LGS is one of the best jobs in the world. It's hard work and comes with all the usual roller coaster elements of being an entrepreneur but is also deeply rewarding and at the end of the day, you get play games at work with people who give you money.
