"I Quit!" Lady Dances Around the Office at 4AM

(youtube) I work for an awesome company that makes news videos. I have put my entire life into this job, but my boss only cares about quantity, how fast we write and how many views each video gets.

I believe it's more important to focus on the quality of the content. When you learn to improve this, the views will come. Here is a little video I made explaining my feelings.

Look at me!Look at me!Look at me!Look at me!Look at me!

I'm special and creative and my boss is a big meanie who doesn't realize how good I am!

Get over yourself.

Garbage attention-seeking from an imitator.

I've said this before: If you're trying to dance funny you need to be able to actually dance. Just like you need to be able to sing in order to sing funny.

gharksays...

exactly how I feel about all these people that make a video about them quitting work.

I've been at work at 4:30 and tempted to make a video like this. I have to say, I respect her style.

Also, perhaps it's just a viral marketing scheme for this company she supposedly works for...

Some jobs take a lot of your time, are awesome, and still (maybe) not worth it. How do people not see this? Do you need scapegoats to work at the same place for close to 10 years with very little credit for the sacrifice and value they've dumped into the job; with little self-seeking beyond wanting to maximize your potential and increase the value of a product you feel others are dropping the ball on?

And then to finally make the call that it's not worth it. And to go out in a way that adds value to your life, rather than a flat, depressing thud; the dawning realization that you are now jobless but free...

To be constantly judged by compliance, once radical, ever changing system theory, now turned common place and required for what once was exciting, fresh, and driven by passion...

The passion filter is ON. It's on and it ain't ever turning OFF.

Kruposays...

If it's any vindication, seems like her bosses were cool about it. Per this happy response that I'm shamelessly *related=http://videosift.com/video/Shifrins-former-employer-dance-response-to-4-am-I-quit

I missed the bit in the cartoon where he danced around the office.

'cos it seems like in the 10th panel he just hands in his resignation like a professional.

If you're not doing what you want to, then definitely quit. More power to you.

This is not that. This is someone looking for their 15 mins of viral fame.

rebuildersaid:

Wow, a lot of vitriol directed at someone deciding to stop doing what they no longer want to do!

I'll just leave this here:

My unhappy workmate punched a hole on his laptop screen, told my boss to go f**k himself right in front of everyone, and left. He was a brave man
