“The first boss to give me a shot on-air left the station not long afte...” — Shannon Bream Quote

“The first boss to give me a shot on-air left the station not long after I started reporting. The next boss fired me, and told me I was the worst person he'd ever seen on TV and that I would never make it. That felt like being punched in the gut repeatedly! But I pulled myself together and kept fighting for my dream.”

“I have gone to White House dinners in a dress that I have bought at Loehmann's.”

“When I get out of bed in the morning, I literally say a prayer. The first thing I do is thank God that I got through the night.”

“I had never been in charge of anything. I'd always worked for someone. I worked for a furniture warehouse. I did masonry. I always had a boss yelling at me. So I'd never been in charge of an organization.”

“I like to work hard and I like to work for somebody. I like to stay late and clean up the back and show the boss in the morning.”

“I don't see myself as the boss. I sing and write the songs, and it would feel strange if somebody else wrote the lyrics I sang.”
