Acting is a hard job, would you want it?

This thread reminds me of the scene in "The Disaster Artist" where some of the actors are having lunch or something and this older woman says that she had to leave home at 6 in the morning and drive three hours to get to the set (or something like that) for peanuts, and somebody asks her "Why do you do it?", to which she replies "because the worst day in a film set is better than the best day at any other job".
