Yahoo! Picks - bringing you the best of the Web since 1995

Hey, you may be stuck now, cleaning the floors at Dairy Queen, delivering papers, or clearing tables for the local Mexican restaurant. But that doesn't mean you'll be there forever. A salesgirl who fitted bras at a Denver department store went on to become the United States secretary of state. A janitor transformed himself into a best-selling novelist. A shoeshine man became a roaring juggernaut of the airwaves. And a lifeguard grew to be a legendary actor, known for his cackling laughter and verging-on-losing-it style. Hardly Famous chronicles these humble tales of beginning and so many more. So, next time you're feeling blue about your job, remember this: Brando dug ditches. Cyndi Lauper cleaned dog runs. And Tommy Lee Jones was once known for nothing more than being Al Gore's roommate. There's always tomorrow.
