Back in the day, people came from the Rust Belt with nothing, to CA, to make their last stand, so to speak.

Now, they leave here for places like AK.

Obviously the man shouldn't have been released.

It's truly sad, but maybe he shouldn't have placed his hope on that job. Maybe he shouldn't have been released. Maybe, just maybe, he should have not given up hope here in California. Ah well, Captain Hindsight has to go...

Huh. Guess he showed them! That'll teach them not to reject people who pin all their hopes and dreams on a job catching fish!

Sounds like someone who thought reality TV is real. I can't imagine if he had gotten a job on a boat being that unstable.

Anyone else seeing the disconnect between being enticed by a crab fishing TV show and going to Alaska for work when it isn't crab season?
