The Underemployed Life spoke with 36 year old entrepreneur Duane Peschke. Duane graduated with a business degree from the University of Notre Dame, and spent his post college career toiling away in jobs that left him dissatisfied and frustrated. He finally decided to leave the safety of a stable but unsatisfying job, and carve out his own career path. We asked him about underemployment, his experiences working for Safeway and AT&T, and leaving behind corporate America so he could start his business, American Hawg Biker Jewelry.
“You don’t need to be like everyone else. Do what you believe in. People will respect you more for it. Although you’ll always get people that will try and take you down. Go out and do your own thing.”
