pointing out two realities of working as an actor. The first is that even successful actors who earn a lot of money are essentially always unemployed between jobs since they do not have a steady paycheck or work like other professions. There are periods where they are not working on any project. The second reality is that as an actor, you have very little power or control over your career.

You depend on directors and producers hiring you for roles. So while actors may earn money for the work they do, they are still at the mercy of others for their next job opportunity and have little influence over decisions made about their projects or careers. McDormand is acknowledging that acting comes with an inherent lack of stability and autonomy despite any financial rewards.
