Internet Meme of the Week: Joey Quits

As Joey explains, his hotel job sucks and he wants to quit. Something a lot of people can relate to, right? However, most people probably don't choose to break the news to their bosses with a marching band accompaniment. The band, known as the "What Cheer?" Brigade, is a 19-piece ensemble complete with tubas, drums and a variety of horns. As Joey waits in anticipation in the employee wing of the hotel to confront his boss and announce his intention to quit, he is surrounded by a cheerful percussion-wielding crowd. The camera pans around the disma-looking facility as he waits. At long last, the petulant hotel manager comes in to tell them all to leave, Joey announces that he quits, and the band launches into its song, complete with enthusiastic cheers of "Joey Quits!" The song will be sure to reverberate in Joey's boss's eardrums for days. You can't help but admire Joey's style.
