Delonte West

( Delonte West via Twitter) West, who is a free agent in the basketball world, tweeted relentlessly about his first day on his new job and shared pictures (which you can see when his Twitter account calms down). He even shared a photo of his job application, complete with the explanation that he’d been convicted of a crime because of a “misunderstanding.”

West, a graduate of Greenbelt’s Eleanor Roosevelt High School, is a familiar face around the store. “Sometimes he just stops by to say hi,” King said. “He can make some extra money, and it would make money for us.”

There was confusion initially about where West would be working. Selling furniture seems like a better thing for him than lifting it, but when Reliable Source checked in with Regency, he was in the warehouse.

Sure enough, West tweeted a photo of himself wearing a Regency shirt and chillin’, er, getting to know his new coworkers in the warehouse and “having fun at my new job.” Overall, he seemed pleased with a workday in the real world, saying Regency is a “cool place to be.”

“I actually might have work with Sam's [Club], BJ's, selling knives,” West told True Hoop’s Adam Reisinger. “That's pretty cool too. I get a microphone and everything.”
