Less of an oversized promotional desktop calendar, and more of an interactive escape from reality. To see the full 12-month calendar, click here.

On the first work day of every month, recipients of this desktop calendar would return to their desk, sit in place, and read about some new thrilling or glamorous career they could have instead of their current job.

Be it astronaut or anthropologist, ballerina or birthday clown, mortician or movie reviewer, scuba diver or showgirl—this calendar allowed the viewer to step (or sit) into the shoes (or legs) of some other life.

However, each story had a twist: The dangers, pitfalls, drawbacks, injuries or even mortality rates associated with each job. By the the time they finished reading, our audience was often happy to be sitting right where they were at.
