[From The Inquisitr] How do you quit a job especially if the working conditions are horrendous? You quit with a bang. That’s what Joey of Rhode Island did when he quit his job at the Marriott Hotel in Providence. According to Joey:

“The working conditions in the hotel are horrendous. In the kitchen, workers are regularly forced to work 10, 11, 14, 16 hour shifts that begin at 5:30AM and last well into the night. Housekeepers are reprimanded if they fail to clean 16 rooms or more in a 9 hour shift. Anyone who speaks up—especially anyone who is openly pro-union—is disciplined or fired. Managers, like Jared, scream down employees daily.”

So how did Joey quit? He brought his friends, who are members of a marching band, informed his boss Jared that he’s quitting, and the trumpets and cymbals erupted as Joey walked his way out.

Bill Belichick on the post-game handshake. “I think probably like a lot of things in football it’s become something a lot different than what it really was intended to be or really is. Of course now it’s so heavily scrutinized by the media that it is an event bigger than the game itself which is so absurd. Like a lot of things it takes any personalization out of the game and makes it a public topic for discussion. I think it’s ridiculous that the media focuses on it the way it does. I’d like to think the reason the people are there is to see the game and see the competition, but we seem to want to talk about anything but the game.” [Sports Radio Interviews]
