At age 18, Hamill, a student at Los Angeles City College, worked the drive-thru at Jack in the Box, where he practiced impersonations.
“I had worked at another fast-food place when I was like 16, so I knew the routine,” as Mark Hamill tells it, “, but I always aspired to work that takeout window.”
And the window made for the perfect stage to hone his acting chops: “I thought you should talk like a clown, which is what I did,” Hamill remembered. “I thought it was amusing — my boss thought it was annoying.”
So annoying, in fact, that the impersonations resulted in Hamill getting fired.
