I have experienced a little heckling. Most comics say that you can either ignore them or confront them. I chose to just acknowledge that they are there and that I heard them and kept going on with my comedy bit. It worked for me but I can't say that I've had to deal with a terrible heckler...yet.

It really just depends on the situation. Sometimes hecklers can add to the comedy and sometimes they are belligerent assholes and should be thrown out. My case was momentary.

I work full time doing field admissions for a technical college.

For most of my job I don't get to at all but one part I do quite a bit. I give presentations to high school seniors about going to college and about the school I work for. When presenting I get to add in a lot of my own clean humor and practice different deliveries to see how they react. I did this for 4 years before I started doing comedy. I truly believe this is what gave me the confidence to try comedy for the first time and feel natural when I was up there.

I would see my next milestone as being paid over $100 for doing a show to a larger crowd. Or to open for a touring comic.
