Shanna B. Van Ness: Goal Set: Strive for Career Security vs. Job…
Radio Host Makes Shocking Claim About Shooting Hillary Clinton
Of all the crappy, humiliating jobs one could have, dancing by the side of the road with a Quiznos sign ranks pretty high on our list of things we'd rather not do. Well, apparently Jeremy Johnson doesn't feel that way. The guy was taking a break from his gig holding a Quiznos sign and dancing by the side of the Pennyrile Parkway in Hopkinsville, Ky., when drivers started honking and waving at him (go figure). Johnson said that he decided to light a cigarette, climbed to the top rail of the bridge and start dancing there in response. (Hey, Jeremy, ever heard of a thumbs up?)
Drivers below spotted Johnson and called police, because they thought he was going to boogie himself right off the dang bridge. Police cited him for disorderly conduct. And in classic corporate manner, Johnson's manager said she hopes he was holding his sign the whole time. Johnson is still employed by Quiznos.

Damn, give the kid his job back and Jeremy stay off the damned brige and messing with the old people that don't see the funny side of things anymore, there all stressed out after work and just don't think about having fun. Good luck to you Jeremy and never stop trying to make people smile. OH, one last thing, PLEASE stop with the cigarettes trust me you don't need them.
Keep Up The Good Work

If you read the article all the way through you will see at the end that it says he is still has his job. "And in classic corporate manner, Johnson's manager said she hopes he was holding his sign the whole time. Johnson is still employed by Quiznos." I do agree with you about stopping smoking, though.

This story reminded me of the guy I saw in Orlando, Florida with a sign for a new housing development. He was absolutely hilarious and entertaining. He was dancing and flipping the sign all over the place and just having the best time. I love people who have a sense of humor and like to entertain themselves and others.

Glad Jeremy is still employed. If he makes your day- it's all good then.
Quit smoking, Jeremy- smoking tends to take the fun outta life when told you have cancer.

He obviously has quite a bit of pride in his work. Just because it may be a minimum-wage job, does not mean that it shouldn't be done well or without pride. Any job that you've given your best ability to, should be accomplished with pride. Maybe, if more people thought more about doing a job properly than only working for the paycheck attached to it, people would find more to be happy about.

The young man is EMPLOYED, seems to enjoy his job, and THEY apparently appreciate HIM! Good for both him and his employers!
YOU have no idea what his wages are, NOR what else his job entails. Often this is only part of what the employee will be doing. I've had children work for other places and they would occasionally stand out with signs, or in a costume to draw attention to the business.
There is NO shame in ANY job (that is not illegal), and doing your job well IS part of having pride! Enjoying it and having fun with it will boost people's attention most usually in a very postitive way.
With your attitude I doubt they would want to hire you anyway.

He has enough pride to HAVE A JOB! especially in this economy...It's not what you do for a living that is important, it's about HOW you do it that really matters.

Better to do this job and pay the bills than be homeless.
When you get a little older "r", and you can get a workers permit with your parent's permission at 14.5 years, and you'll maybe have a sense of accomplishment, rather than undue pride.

Considering that the Quizno's here doesn't have a mascot like that....the only one we have is the Little Ceaser's guy, maybe you should get your facts straight.
