Or spend the rest of your life working for free, which seems to be popular these days.

Oh no, I don't mean charity work.
I understand kids these days can get jobs as long as they don't mind never getting paid. And like idiots, they accept it.

Well I won't pretend it doesn't happen in film
When you're making something on a shoestring budget a lot of the time people do give their time for free - though it does pay off. Quite a few of our cast and crew have gone on to bigger and better things with clips from our movies on their demo reel, so I can't feel too guilty about it. And a mainstream film not only employed our actor, but had him play basically the same character as well.

Absolutely
but they tried to kick out anything I felt to be important. Parents put me in a more liberal school and I excelled.
Uni reminded me of a factory production line. Did well in the first year - top marks. Disliked the politics. Won a scholarship to a small, elite college, top marks.
Combination of pig-headedness and patience.

If production lines were run like houses of education, nothing would ever get made.
Or if it did, it would be late, generally substandard or not the thing that was ordered.
