John Christian Love, recognized for his role as Ernesto in AMC's 'Better Call Saul,' has publicly shared that he is currently employed as an Amazon delivery driver. This revelation came via a Reddit post where he detailed the slowdown in acting opportunities as the reason for taking on the delivery job.
Love, who previously went by Brandon K. Hampton, explained on Reddit that he is "out here delivering with you!" He acknowledged the difficulty of the work but maintained a positive outlook, stating, "one delivery at a time. Be blessed out there!" The actor also revealed that prior to this, he experienced homelessness and lived in his car in Los Angeles due to a lack of work.
He noted that while royalties from 'Better Call Saul' provide some income, they are insufficient for full-time sustenance. Love mentioned a significant film project alongside Lily Gladstone and Bryan Cranston that halted due to funding issues, leaving him unpaid. He expressed a desire to create his own projects rather than solely waiting for acting roles.
Love also commented on his previous delivery jobs, stating that other companies like FedEx and UPS offered better working conditions than Amazon. He cited issues with inconsistent routes, poorly maintained vans, and a lack of proper work culture at Amazon's RSR facility.
