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:
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.
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
Maybe he’s an evangical but also the next John Brown :john-brown:
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.
Switchfoot is the only music that ever came out of the christian “scene” that I ever found worth listening too.
