I'd rather go back to waitressing than play a character that I hate.
When I was at Madrid, I knew even by the December of that season that I would be sacked, and if they hadn't dismissed me, I would have resigned.
I'm unqualified for anything else. I'm barely qualified for this.
I'd rather be dead than work in a warehouse.
I do what work I get. I'm disappointed half the time.
A lot of people don't enjoy their jobs, and it's one of the main things we like to complain about.
I felt alienated by the experience and decided to stay away from corporate employment.
I didn't work for a year and a half after 'Melvin and Howard' because all I was being offered was silly parts.
I've never come into anything successful before. I've always been hired by horrible radio stations with horrendous reputations and nothing to lose.
In L.A., I worked as a bagger at a Ralphs for about two weeks. And I said, 'I just can't do that.' Not that it's a bad job. I would put the bread down and then the cans down on the bread, so I got fired. Or I just left. I'm not really sure which one happened.
The worst job I ever had was when I had to try to sell a service for medical waste treatment.
Just getting paid for six months out of the year is unacceptable in any kind of job.
It is almost as difficult to keep a first class person in a fourth class job, as it is to keep a fourth class person in a first class job.
We may seem great in an employment below our worth, but we very often look little in one that is too big for us.
There's no point doing a job where you're uncomfortable or doing something you dislike.
Well, I've cleaned bathrooms in a warehouse. That was pretty terrible. But I can't complain because I'm sure other people have done worse.
It's better not to work than to work in something you don't want to be working in.
I've done the most awful rubbish in order to have somewhere to go in the morning.
There is a certain amount of dissatisfaction that goes with knowing your time, talent and abilities are not being properly used.
If you're doing a job, and you secretly want to do a different job, you start to blame the job. I was blaming the teaching for that fact I wasn't performing. I really felt I needed to follow a comedy career.
After I was fired from Disney, I did some of the worst movies ever made and I got professionally involved with a manager who said it didn't matter what you did as long as you kept working. I wound up completely broke.
I couldn't make ends meet. I tried Red Lobster. I tried Wal-Mart. I tried all these places and I couldn't make it. I couldn't. So, I tried this gentlemen's club, and, you know, I worked there, and it was just awful in those places. It was terrible.
I'm not terribly good at being around work I don't care about!
So I'm in quite the wrong profession obviously.
The worst job I ever had was working nights in the Chrysler Building. I was part of a team of about five guys, and we polished the leather furniture.
