It's almost like while you are working for the WWF everything is fine and good, but if you are no longer employed by them they want you to just drop off the face of the earth and it's like you never existed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've seen a lot of real out-of-line attitudes since I have been in the WWF and those people are still there or are getting a second or third chance or something like that.
I was miserable in WCW. I knew I wasn't going to go any higher there, and jumping to WWE hadn't even crossed my mind. I couldn't stop wondering, 'Is this it? Is this what I worked my whole life for?'
But I'm very happy with my life the way it has been turning out. A little time in the country, a little time with the animals and working on behalf of them.
The real bummer of fame is that at some point you're bound to get demoted.
It's very hard to step into a job when people are just dismissing you as a pretty face, and saying you got your job only because your surname is McMahon.
I know myself, from my own background, the E.U. depresses employment and destroys jobs. My father had a business destroyed by the common fisheries policy.
We are the only species on the planet without full employment. Brilliant.
I hope to goodness I would not still be working in the corporate world - the money is OK but it is no life at all.
The best thing about my job, though, is stopping at the end of the day and rejoining the human universe.
The first view of the Earth is magical... in such a small planet, with such a small ribbon of life, so much goes on. It is as if the whole place is sacred. You get the feeling that I need to work extraordinarily hard along with other human beings to respect that.
