Imagine me dropping you off a helicopter in the middle of the Afghanistan desert with no camp, no supplies, and no one else to help you. Your mission is to set up camp, find and train volunteers to help you and help make everyone happy to be there. Do you think you can handle that? You'll be expected to work 50-60 hour a week for $40,000/year. Will that work for you?
