Employment Trivia Game
Readers: Todd Warren, the Region HR Business Partner at Bremer Bank in St. Cloud MN, is the latest winner of our Employment Trivia Game. The questions were, “If you quoted Ezekiel prior to performing your job responsibilities, what job would you have? Name the movie, the lead actors, and the director. What was the outcome the first time this occurred in the movie and what was the outcome the second time?”
As Todd correctly stated, if you met the description above, your job would be a “Hitman.” The movie in which this scene was portrayed was Quentin Tarintino’s 1994 film, “Pulp Fiction,” starring Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta. Before killing his victims, Samuel Jackson’s character, Jules, would make the following observation: “There’s a passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. “The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness, for he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon you.””
The second time Jules gave this speech came at the end of the movie, after Jules had experienced a “miracle.” Reflecting on his life of crime, Jules elected not to kill the person to whom he was speaking.
For providing all of these answers, Todd wins one of our amazing prizes. The next question goes up now. Good luck! Roy
