Delonte West Working for a Furniture Store During NBA Lockout?


A few days ago, Delonte West posted an image online of his job application at Regency Furniture (see below; it’s magical), and then took a picture yesterday during what seems like his first day on the new job: “I am now an official employee of Regency Furniture.. Check me out on my first day”

    Delonte should sell some nice brand new couches to members of the Red Sox team. Nothing beats a nice comfy couch while watching POSTSEASON baseball. lol

    If I walked into a furniture store and a salesman that looked like him approached me, I would run out as fast as I could.

    I have to reply to this one. how is he going to look working a regular 9 to 5 with all of those tatoos on his neck. I’m not hating on ink, but I’m saying for the young bucks who are getting inked up like crazy this could be a wake up call. You might want message you’re sending to people before you pay for the neck ink

    LOL, I copped a $7 West Jersey at the Sonics Store right before they shut it down. I like the kid.

    Wouldn’t it be better if this job went to someone who actually needs it?

  • MikeC. Posted: Sep.29 at 5:44 pm
    You think they sell gun safes there?

  • Mike Posted: Sep.29 at 8:10 pm
    Did anyone notice? The guy in the driver’s seat is not the real Delonte West. The tattoo’s on his arms do NOT match those of the original West. The neck tattoo is a good copy, but the upper arms do not match up. Compare it to one of his basketball photos. Looks as though someone is pulling a fast one here. But hey, it got a lot of attention didn’t it?

  • Ugh Posted: Sep.29 at 10:12 pm
    @Nehemiah – looks like he’s working in the delivery van, so it probably isn’t an issue.
    @Reggie35 – I feel like I should counter that with the standard binary opposite: “What are these cats doing if they ern millions every year but have to work during the off-season, damn son lern to manage yo money!!!”

  • Yesse Posted: Sep.30 at 1:51 am
    What’s up with the T letters being big? And another thing, i don’t understand why he wants to work in some regular job since he could play in europe unless he has some legal problems leaving the country. I’m sure he could make money with basketball in USA as well.

  • ok... Posted: Sep.30 at 2:17 am
    Did he spell “yesterday” as “yesturday” with a “u” or am I just seeing that wrong?

  • Neitel#2 Posted: Sep.30 at 6:24 am
    If he is hired today, he will be available, yesterday?? dude got issues to work on, he should go home and rethink his life…lol

  • Ali Posted: Sep.30 at 7:04 am
    I understand he’s trying to be funny, but there are REAL people out there struggling to find work. I hope he still has millions in the bank. I see the humor but I ain’t laughing…

  • Ugh Posted: Sep.30 at 7:24 am
    @Ali – Are you saying Delonte isn’t a real person? What is he, inflatable?

  • Andrea Posted: Sep.30 at 7:35 am
    Funny how YestUrday is spelled wrong and did anyone notice that the guy sitting in the middle in the truck is in a lawn chair hahaha..Um def not at work but still commical.
