Who would have thought that famous actress Jennifer Aniston who once played the role of spoiled socialite-turned-waitress-turned-fashion executive in the popular TV series "FRIENDS" once worked at a burger joint in real life?
Well, she actually did.
According to the Us Magazine, Jennifer worked as a waitress at a burger joint called Jackson Hole Burgers located at Manhattan's Upper West Side while she was just starting with her acting career.
What's even humbling is that she came back to the place recently and ate there showing that she knows how to look back to acknowledge where she came from.
In a photo taken during her visit, we see the 45-year old actress wearing a black skirt, a scarf, and a coat at the Jackson Hole Burgers last Tuesday, December 16 before she headed to the Lincoln Center for the screening of her newest film, "Cake."
E! Online said that Jennifer was not exactly alone that time as she was with her best friend and celebrity hair stylist Chris McMillan. It added that the two were there around 5 p.m.
A witness told E! Online that Jennifer "seemed very happy" when she returned there. The unidentified source also said that the actress was indeed enjoying the night with Chris.
Us Magazine said that Jennifer actually revealed about her old job at "The Queen Latifah Show" last December 1.
"I've had so many bosses...I worked at a restaurant called Jackson Hole, on 85th and Columbus, burger joint. The best burgers by the way. I worked there for about two and half years, and they were so good to me," the report quoted her as saying.
In the show, she also talked about her boss whom she said was named Kimo. She said that he was good to her, allowing her to do plays on the side.
"If I got a crappy little play down on 13th street or whatever awesome job I thought I had received, he would let me go for two or three months, and they would always let me come back. My job was always there," she said.
"What I thought was my real job was being a waitress and then I would go and do theater on the side," she added.
In the show, Jennifer was able to talk via phone to her former boss. Kimo said that they love Jennifer and commended her for her success. "We love you!...I can't wait to see ya," to quote him.
To which Jennifer responded, "Thank you for supporting me all those years, it meant the world to me."
Us Magazine said that Jennifer already talked about her old job at a 2011 interview with Marie Claire. There, she revealed that the job was not her forte and that she was not really good at it. She said that she once dropped a burger on a customer's lap. Despite her not-so-good performance, she said that she gained people's admiration as she was "very nice and charming."
