I was like, boy, I came up.

It was.

It was on Richmond.

And then I went through this dilemma of people not saying that you're not a real comic because you don't do it for a living.

And I remember asking Bruce Bruce about it.

I said, man, Bruce Bruce, he's a comedian, another comic.

I asked Bruce Bruce, I say, hey, man, are you, this is when he was the host of Comic View.

And I asked him, hey, people say that you're not a real comic unless you're doing it for a full time, for a living.

And he said, man, I'm going to give you some advice, brother.

I worked for Frito-Lay until my comedy started making more money for me consistently than my job.

And once that happened, then I quit my job.

He said, don't quit your job until your career start making more money consistently than your job.

I was selling clothing.

I was working in the men's apparel store, you know, in the mall.

And I worked at Sunglass Hut.

You know, I used to be a street pharmaceutical rep, but then I went to being a sales rep.

Ain't that so?

The same amount of skill, the same thing.

Hey, I need to find somebody who addicted to suits and shades.

So to make my commission.
