I feel like I still am struggling in a lot of different ways. I still have to fight for certain things. Certain jobs. At least I’m working and I’m thankful for that.

Gina Gershon frames professional life not as a linear ascent but as an ongoing negotiation for opportunity. The repetition of “still” underscores persistence: even with experience and name recognition, she suggests that access to roles and fair consideration can remain contested. The mention of “certain jobs” hints at the selective gatekeeping of the entertainment industry—typecasting, ageism, shifting market tastes, and the precariousness of freelance work. Yet the closing note—gratitude for being employed—adds humility and realism, acknowledging that steady work itself is a privilege in a volatile field. The quote balances resilience with sober acceptance.
