I’m not the type to make a post like this but for the first time I feel panicked.

My manager just told me corporate is probably going to make vaccines mandatory, and they’ve been suggesting it on her calls. (It’s a very liberal company.)

I can hold out for the plan but I’m terrified of this vaccine being forced on me. I’ll leave the job if I have to, but this is getting to be too much.

How are other people dealing with this? I can’t afford to not have a job even for even a month. I’m an independent and a student and work weekends so I’m paycheck to paycheck.

I’m all for respecting other people’s choice to get the shot, and I haven’t gotten any backlash from my friends for expressing my desire not to take it. I’m doing fine. But if it becomes a trend for jobs to require it I’ll be trapped. It would be a deep state check mate on me.

Can the plan really allow this?! It’s giving me doubt for the first time and my faith is shaken.

Edit: thank you all so much. This community gives me so much strength.
