when he started his quest. His first job was as a waiter. He didnt mind serving food, but what bothered him
was that sometimes the clients got angry at him, so he quit. After that, he tried to work as a mechanic. He
didnt know very much about cars, but he learned quickly. Nathan loved that job. Nevertheless, he found its
flaw: he didnt like getting grease on his hands. Later on, Nathan tried working as a chef. That job didnt last

becoming a police officer. Big mistake! He soon realized that the training was very tough. He wasnt strong
