Whenever I look up on how actors today are providing for themselves while doing auditions/seeking gigs, I see how they’re always hosting at normal/fast food restaurants, bartending, and doing like 2-3 jobs. Please don’t get me wrong, I absolutely admire those people who do. I’m just wondering if that’s a true necessity…

**Been researching this for a bit, and many articles say all performers are narcissists, but I don't believe that's true.** I really can't see someone like Laura Linney, John C.

Hey Reddit family!
