Man quit his $100K per year salary job to work for Logan Paul… but got rejected
Back in 2021, Austin Wallace went viral after claiming he’d packed in his $100k salary job to try out for a job with YouTuber-turned-boxer Logan Paul.
But a dream opportunity soon turned into a nightmare for Wallace, when he was, in no uncertain terms, rejected by fellow Ohio native Paul.
Introducing the footage in his video, Wallace struggled to conceal his emotions as he said: “I just talked to Logan Paul… Before I approached him, he was bragging about making $3 million. I make $100,000 a year. I’m 22, I do make $100,000, that’s cool. And I wanna act, I wanna do these things…
Through tears, Wallace said: “I’m 22, I do make $100,000 a year and that’s cool. I wanna act, I wanna do these things, I’m gonna break down right now.”
He added: “I don’t know what to do. I did come up here by myself, I do have family but we’re not the closest, and I don’t have really close friends. You know there’s millions of people trying to do what I wanna do. Just watch the clip.”
Wallace then cut to a clip of the encounter he had with Paul, who asked what he was good at.
Wallace was brutally honest and admitted he didn’t really have what it took, despite ‘legit’ quitting his job for him.
“So you’ve really got what it takes?” Paul asked Wallace, to which he responded: “I don’t.”
“Then why would I give you a job? Why would I do that?” Paul, brother of Jake Paul, said.
Paul then told Wallace: “I can’t be a mentor right now. I’m a f***-up myself. I need a mentor, you know what I’m saying? Go make content, make stuff with your friends.”
