LOS ANGELES — Former child actor Danny Pintauro recently shared that he is delivering packages for Amazon Flex while navigating a challenging time in the entertainment industry.
“Working hard while ‘not working,’” Pintauro wrote April 8 in an Instagram post, which included a picture of himself wearing a delivery vest in a vehicle full of packages.
“The entertainment business has been soooo slow, so I’ve been doing what a lot of people do — figuring it out, showing up, and taking the work that’s there while I keep building the work I really want. 38 packages today! There’s no shame in staying in motion.”
