The thing about 'Soft Machine' and me was that I never considered another profession.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I came into the industry at a time when there weren't a lot of choices to what you could do.
Even my family is shocked that I chose this profession.
The idea was never for me to be a career bureaucrat or career technocrat; it was more about where I could implement ideas and reform programs.
I never pursued a career relentlessly.
I wanted to be a shoe designer, but I never thought it could be a profession. But what was the alternative? Doctor? Too dirty! Air-hostess? Maybe not! Then someone gave me a book on Roger Vivier, and, cheri, instantly I knew that was it!
In elementary and high school, I never considered acting as a profession.
I always describe my career as something where nothing ever popped overnight.
I was never that much a focus of interest in my career. I'm aware of that now, which doesn't give me a lot of pleasure.
I've always had service-industry jobs, because those were the easiest to quit or take time off from.
I was a hard worker.
