If you've never been on anything before, they're not going to take a risk and give you a huge job 90 percent of the time. There are exceptions to that. I certainly wasn't an exception to that.

Yes. I did more research than I ever wanted to and saw some things I wish I didn't.

Sometimes I feel like I don't have enough ambition.
