At the same time, it was not without jokes from friends… But there is still almost a year of such torment ahead!
One afternoon, Sasha woke up to the ringing of his mobile phone. "I overslept again! The day is down the drain!" — the hero of our material thought at that moment. His friend Andrey called, who immediately enthusiastically began to tell him about the "cool offer".
The guys agreed to meet in the evening to discuss this topic in more detail. As it turned out, an interesting thought came to Andrey that day: "What if you live for a whole year like a character in that movie with Jim Carrey? How cool will your life change during this time?".
Andrey himself could not realize his idea, since stability prevailed in his life for the most part. But the single and unemployed Sasha, who was recently expelled from the university, in his opinion, was perfectly suited for this role.
The guy, after weighing all the pros and cons, eventually agreed to the experiment. So, the young man promised that for a whole year, starting from December 10, 2018, he would answer all questions and suggestions only "Yes". The only condition was that his actions did not harm himself or the people around him.
Sasha started a channel in Telegram, where he began to talk about how the experiment was going. The first bright event since its beginning was the device in Yandex.Food. Sasha was constantly pursued by advertising (not without the help of Andrey) with an offer to become a courier, and since now he could not refuse, he had to say "Yes".
On the first working day, the guy made 6 deliveries and earned 675 rubles. It took him about five hours. Each subsequent shift became more and more difficult.
The insidious friend Andrey set several conditions for the trouble-free Sasha, having fulfilled which he will finally be able to quit. Firstly, it was necessary to earn tips, which, as it turned out, is very rare among couriers. Secondly, to sleep with some client.
If he managed to fulfill the first point of the plan in the next week, then difficulties arose with the second. Most of his clients were men. In addition, Alexander did not have such a rich experience in dealing with girls.
To make the experiment even more fun, Sasha asked his Telegram subscribers to send him various tasks through a special bot. So, a young man was once offered to cook dumplings on his own (he had not done this before), and later — to hitchhike to Thailand.
Already in January, the guy intends to go on a trip. Now he is saving money and making a passport.
And the guy was also offered to shave off his beard. This is how we will see him very soon…
Sasha carried out the next challenge from subscribers with great interest — the young man agreed to live on a "deputy" diet for 3.5 thousand rubles for a whole month. This is the same diet that Saratov deputy Nikolay Bondarenko tried to adhere to earlier. And the "author" of the diet is the Minister of Labor, Employment and Migration of the Saratov region Natalia Sokolova. In her opinion, this money is quite enough to satisfy the minimum physiological needs.
Basically, Sasha receives harmless offers (to make the same dumplings), but there is also something more interesting… For example, a young man was told to hitchhike to Moscow, and from there by plane to get to St. Petersburg. He had to do all this in a Santa Claus costume, since at that time the airline was just holding an action and people in such New Year's outfits could fly for free.
Nevertheless, having reached St. Petersburg in this way, the guy filled the first tattoo in his life "Mister Yes". Variants of sketches were sent to Sasha by his subscribers, and chosen by a master who offered a tattoo completely free of charge.
On the way back from St. Petersburg, the guy invited the tattoo artist Lina on a date. Again, on the advice of subscribers. The budget meeting was held in the auditorium of Moscow State University on the 22nd floor with a view of Moscow at night. The guys drank beer, and then went to the hookah room, where another subscriber of Sasha gave them delicious food and tea.
Also, a month after the start of the experiment, Sasha managed to go to a punk concert, stay with unknown St. Petersburg hippies, spend the night on the square of three railway stations in Moscow, work as Santa Claus, congratulating the kids at home, sleep at a gas station, waiting for the metro to open, and, although alone, but very fun to celebrate the New Year.
Sasha says that sometimes he feels like the hero of the film and enjoys the events taking place. In the near future, the guy will have to hitchhike to Thailand, and also shelter a homeless person or a cat at home. Who exactly it will be is now being decided by his subscribers on the Telegram channel.
