Joey Quits

Joey Quits: "The current economic climate has made it easier than ever for management to exploit employees. Fearful of losing their jobs and facing unemployment, insecure workers often submit to working conditions they otherwise would not tolerate."

"The only way to improve working conditions is to organize ourselves to share information and demand respect. The "Joey Quits" video has deterred the Providence Renaissance managers from disrespecting Renaissance workers. We've created this site as a way to help other hotel workers share their stories and, by doing so, make change in their unjust workplaces as well."

The band that helps Joey quit with style is the "What Cheer? Brigade", but there are lots of other activist marching bands at Honkfest and Honkfestwest.

This post (convolutedly) inspired by the awesome version of "Killing in the Name of" performed by the George Mason Green Machine band (via BoingBoing).
