He wrote on his application that he can't work Sunday because "Sundays are for the Lord." He sounds like either someone extremely irony poisoned or like a homeschool Christian kid.
Not only will he have to work with me. This is a job that will make him question the existence of a benevolent God. :agony-immense:
I should start writing that on all my applications, either it'll be a terminal lib who you can accuse of "bring divisive" if they don't hire you or respect your wishes, or you're in with the evangelical zealot business owner - as these are the only two types of people who run businesses, it can't fail!
For real tho here you have some religious weirdos that are enormous shitbags but will respect the holydays
I didn't write it on my application (which is a little sus) but I insist to my employer that I am a devout Catholic who needs to go to Mass every Sunday. And every Sunday I play video games and drink a bottle of wine, which is what Jesus really wanted us to do.
Although, everyone I work with is either Evangelical or Mormon, so gaming on Sundays is acutally an improvement over the cannibalistic orgies they think Catholics do during Mass.
I had some born again evangelical try to convert me while we were working together.
Like bro I am a lapsed catholic, you don't need to educate me on scripture. I know a whole hell of a lot of it.
Respect the hustle and give the fucker a chance. Closed on Sundays may have a bad connotation to some. But honestly it's cool to have a society that respects people not having to work.
That's a bad sign, but there's an outside chance he'll be vaguely normal. Plenty of Quakers/Methodists and Jews and Left-Catholics who won't work Saturday/Sunday and are fine people.
Though they probably wouldn't use that cringe wording.
He might like the discomfort of the job. I have a guy at my work thats in his mid 20s, married, wears a livestrong bracelet that says something about the lord or whatever, and is a massive suckup bootlicker. After being pushed to produce X amount of product, already a large number, he tells the boss "oh we can handle more than that, thats easy." He also listens to obscure mid 2000s christian rock. I should know, I used to listen to that shit as well 15 years ago. I could probably have a solid conversation about different bands that I still remember with him, not that I want to.
obscure mid 2000s christian rock
The only christian music I know is Avantasia, and I found it pretty good.
I just checked out avantasia, the Christian rock im talking about isn't nearly as theatrical or fun as that. I do still have a soft soft spot for switchfoot though
Looking at it more closely, I assumed they were Christians because of the imagery and the scenario of their metal opera (where a christian 17th century inquisitor discovers his sister is a "witch" and then meets a druid that introduces him to an alternate world of spirituality), but in fact it appears they are not; the creator, Tobias Sammet, apparently said in an interview he doesn't consider himself one and just really digs the Christian imagery. Here's a full description of the scenario for part 1. One of my favourite is The Seven Angels.
Yeah thats the sense I get. Most Christian bands wouldn't be cool with a song about meeting a chill witch haha
I do still have a soft soft spot for switchfoot though
Will check it out, thanks.
Switchfoot is the only music that ever came out of the christian "scene" that I ever found worth listening too.
Meant to live absolutely rips.
I went back to listen to skillet and p.o.d and didn't find much worthwhile. The street fight podcast guys have a podcast about rap-rock called the p.o.d-cast that's pretty cool if you have any nostalgia for the genre. P.o.d mostly sucks but the song boom still holds up.
Might be Mormon, I know that's a big thing for them. I have spent many a Sunday night driving around with my Mormon friends waiting for the clock to strike 12 so we could go to taco bell
Yeah god has to rest on Sunday because he is tried from creating debilitating diseases, child poverty and abuse, racism, sexism, and phobias of those who are different. It’s tiring work being a nonphysical, abstract concept of the universe and how it functions.
