So, it’s finally happened... my 100% remote company was just told that, some day in July, we would all be required to come in, at the same time, one day a week.
And now co-workers are asking everyone on Slack about who has been vaccinated and making thinly veiled sarcastic jokes about how they’ll ask everyone to show their papers.
I actually had to remind one of them that he was anti-vaccine back in December and January, before he suddenly flipped (but I’m sure he’s very smart and did not base his opinion solely on what CNN says at any given moment).
Boss hasn’t mandated the vaccine yet, but it’s coming.
I don’t normally post, but I need moral support! The fight has finally come to my door, and now I either need to just quit real soon and find something else, or prepare for how I stand my ground!
I would say to look for other employment. There are some good offers put there. My old company is very into covid and likely is going to require the vax soon. I just got a new job more money and all online so I can move somewhere cheaper. I told them I was leaving because of there Covid policies,I've complained to HR a few times and gotten long talks about safety.
I’ve been considering a new job for a while, but I’ve been with this company so long that it’s sometimes hard to imagine leaving.
Glad it worked out for you! That’s encouraging to hear!
