Bosses ask employees to pray for permission to work on Good Friday.
The workers, a group of designers, pray the Our Father and the entire Creed.
“If you pray the entire Creed, we don’t come on Friday”mention the video.
A video on TikTok shows a group of employees praying the Our Father and the entire Creed in order to miss work on Good Fridayand the result has gone viral.
In simple words, Holy Week is the period in which the Christian commemoration of the Passion of Christ takes placewhich, this year, will take place between April 10 and 16, beginning with the celebration of Palm Sunday and culminating with Resurrection Sunday.
Of course, for those who profess this religion, it is an important date in the calendar, which, according to believers, remembers the last days of Christ on Earth.
However, the Easter period is, in the same way, one of the most anticipated by the workers; a space that is used to vacation and / or rest from the daily workday.
Taking into account data from Statista, Easter is one of the periods where there is a greater flow of travelers, people who use these days to go on vacation. To mention an example, in 2017, the number of trips during the holy period reached 7.5 million, while in 2019, the year before the pandemic, the number of trips fell to 6.5 million.
Employees pray not to work on Good Friday
A video on TikTok has gone viral because it shows a group of “atheist” employees praying the full Creed and the Our Father for their bosses to give them permission to miss work on Good Friday, April 15.
The clip was published on the account of @charli_martell, who on the Chinese social network has just over 50 thousand followers and an accumulated 330 million likes among all its contents.
According to what can be seen in the video, it was the bosses who “invited” the employees (a team of designers) to pray both the full Creed and the Our Father, a “test” so that workers can miss work on Good Friday.
“If you pray the entire Creed, we don’t come on Friday”mentions the video in which, at the end, the employees choose a representative so that she is the one who prays.
@charli_martell How do you see that they do not want to work on Friday #agency #design #funny #fyp?
The response from Internet users, of course, has not been long in coming: “Oh no! I told my boss whether tomorrow we would work normally or not because of Good Friday and she told me: ‘it’s until next week and you do work, atheist’”; “There are bosses that do make us work… It is not an obligation to give those days”; “They should leave them homework: whoever learns everything, rests; whoever doesn’t, let him work, to see how firm they are in his beliefs ”. These are some of the comments that several users have left.
Definitely, TikTok has become that communication/conversation space in which Generation Z expresses all kinds of opinions.
Today, we are talking about one of the most powerful content platforms used by Internet users, which has even exceeded one billion active users globally and is the most popular and most searched site today.
