Quitting with Style

Sep 30, 2013
1 min read

Marina Shifrin is a writer for a Taiwanese company that makes news videos.  She got fed up, however, that her boss cares only about speed and number of views, rather than quality, so she quit.  The way she quit, however, was to make an "interpretive dance" video and explain, to the music of Kanye West's song, "Gone."



There's a bit of irony.  In quitting a job because it's too concerned with video views over content...her video went viral on YouTube and has over 5.5 million hits.



That should look pretty good on her resume...



Especially if they decide to bring the old TV dance show, Hullabaloo, back.
