You had a 'proper job' but then you left 'proper job' to pursue work in comedy and now all everyone asks is when you're going to give up? Perhaps a hint but hey - what do they know, right?
10. 'How Come I've Never Heard Of You?'
You're out gigging five days a week, grabbing five or ten minute spots wherever you can and STILL nobody has heard of you. You know one day the big break will come (right? surely it's just a few gigs away?) Then just when you think you've made it past a beginners level and you're ready to go pro you hear them heartbreaking words 'never heard of you' just to remind you the route to the top is still a far cry away.
