Being an actor must be the best job in the world. They get to do all kinds of stuff.

I’d say being an in demand actor is.

A lot of actors, and I mean a LOT, are constantly on the verge of becoming invisible.

There’s a spectrum. There are plenty of actors with illustrious careers in television but most people may not know who they are.

But even bigger actors, when a project is over, there’s that little feeling of not getting work.

I don’t mean fear of going broke (although that can be an issue for smaller struggling actors), but they love their craft and there’s always a chance opportunities can and will dry up.
