like this is an actual thing that happens every world cup, like not even just a school thing everyone gets the brazilian games as a holiday, because people will call in sick or just not go to their work to see the yellow boys play the ball game

    it is generally same situation as a holiday so yeah, but depending on the schedule it is sometimes just you work until midday and then you are free for the rest of the day, and people on bars or places where people go to watch games generally work but they get extra pay for doing it and people who are going to bars are going to watch the game so you are watching the game too it is a weird case by case thing but i study at a federal uni in brazil and i have received a world cup holiday schedule from the minister of education on an email so it is a official thing it is really wild
