Good one rubi, that is one of my favorite jokes, though I heard it a bit differently.

Young monk joins a monestary where he must take a vow of silence. Each year each monk gets an opportunity to say two words to the Abbott. After the first year the young monk goes into the Abbot's office and says "hard beds" The Abbott acknowledges his comment and dismisses him

A year goes by and he once again goes before the Abbot. When asked what he has to say he utters, "bad food". Once again the Abbot acknowledges his comment and dismisses him.

Another year goes by and the young monk goes to the Abbot's office. "Well" says the Abbott, "what have you got to say this year". The young Monk stands and says "I QUIT". To which the Abbott responds, "Just as well, all you've done since you got here is bi#$h".
