A woman’s unique way of asking her bosses for leave has gone viral online, earning praise from thousands of social media users for its creativity and humour.Instead of sending a formal email or speaking to her managers directly, a woman named Talia created a dramatic Netflix-style trailer to request 10 days of leave for a Bali vacation. The video, shared on Instagram, has now racked up over 7 million views online.The clip plays out like a suspense-filled documentary teaser. It opens with an interviewer questioning Talia about her unusual behaviour in recent days. “Do you want to confess why you’ve been on so edge lately?” the interviewer asks.Looking visibly nervous, Talia replies, “I need to ask Frank and Jack a question.”As the dramatic music and questioning continue, the interviewer asks, “Is that why you’re being so strange?”Talia then admits, “I just can’t bring myself to do it. I can’t do it, I haven’t found the right time to do it.”The interviewer encourages her by saying, “Talia, the right time is now.”Finally revealing the reason behind all the tension, Talia says, “I need 10 days of leave to go to Bali and have heaps of fun.”The trailer ends with a dramatic cliffhanger: “So was it a yes or no?”Watch the video below: The video also shows the reactions of her bosses, Frank and Jack, as they watched the unusual leave request unfold.“You have been on edge lately,” they tell Talia after watching the clip.They then jokingly ask whether they are expected to respond in the same cinematic style. “Do we have to send our response in a video format?” they ask.Talia quickly clarifies, “In a documentary trailer format.”Still trying to process the unusual leave request, the bosses then asked, “Yes or no or is there like a third option?”The outcome of the leave request, however, has not yet been revealed.(Also Read: 'Bindaas aaram karo': Manager offers 2-day period leave to female employee, internet divided)Social media reactionsThe video quickly went viral online, with users flooding the comments section with praise for Talia’s creativity.One user wrote, “This girl needs a raise and 15 days leave.”“This is epic !
