      It’s borderline inspirational. It almost makes me want to make a linkedin account just to riff on this for every mundane aspect of my life. I mean I don’t have anything as impressive as a top-25 spot on a Clash of Clans leaderboard, but just because I can’t compete with this guy doesn’t mean I’m unhirable.

      First draft for a pitch:

      Hey hiring managers, have you ever had to deal with ungrateful employees who incessantly whine about needing “sick time” for imaginary problems like “food poisoning”? We’ve all been there. What you need is a guy who is still in sepsis recovery and can barely function day to day to help them realize how good they have it.

      Due to supply-and-demand, you should be ready to make a highly competitive offer. Hourly wages are acceptable with overtime pay over forty hours, and under the agreement that I will be on-the-clock for every hour which I spend recovering from sepsis, which is all of them.

    “I would have hired them, but clearly they spend too much time playing Clash of Clans.”

    I do sometimes joke that in order to hold office you must be able to win a game of Civilization with 2 different victory types.
