Two young men recruited to sell magazines door-to-door found themselves out of a job and a long way from home Thursday.

Daniel Bonney said, "I'm stuck in Nebraska. I can't get home."

Bonney quit his job Thursday and his friend Tyrone Allen joined him.

The two were stuck in Omaha with no money, 1,100 miles from New Orleans where they live.

Their boss dropped them off at the bus station shortly after they turned in their shirts and ties.

Tyrone says they were told, "We're not gonna pay your way home if you don't stay here for a month. You have to find your own way home."

They quit because, in their words, they didn't like the lies of selling magazines door-to-door.

The two had been on the job for a week, working upscale Lincoln neighborhoods for the past three days. Before that they were in Chicago.

Daniel Bonney says, They tell us to write the people up for three years and don't let the people see the price of it. They cheat them out of their money."

Daniel and Tyrone responded to a newspaper ad with the promise of making $700 a week, traveling state to state where expenses were free only to find out the company pitch to the customer wasn't the real story.

In the end the adventurous sales job turned out to cost them.

It took a few hours, but disappointed relatives finally raised $270 for bus tickets to get them home to Louisiana.
