First off, let me tell you how obvious his motives were. This guy hasn't said shit to me in years and all of a sudden he's acting all concerned about the vax.
I interrupted him at one point and said "yeah, I'm not ever getting it"
This mother fucker looks at me all concerned and says "our jobs though...."
I looked at him, shrugged my shoulders and said "It is what it is".
Understand that those who have not gotten vaccinated by now are not about to from threats. I would love to keep working for you but I will absolutely find another job.
I don't think it's fair to blame the employer or management. They're getting pressure and they're in a difficult position just like employees are. I blame the Biden administration. I also would like to know where the elected Republicans are. Where is their outrage? Why haven't they fought for us?
These owners, C level fucks, VPs, managers, etc. If they want any ounce of respect from me or anyone on this board, they had better stand for the rights and freedoms of their employees or they are no better that ol Joe blow himself. These companies mandating this shit are getting baited with 10's, 100's of thousands or even millions of dollars to hit 100% vax rates, which is why some of these places are getting so psychotic about it, because your standing in the way of their money. If you value ill gotten gains over the human lives you employ, then fuck you! Just my 2 cents...
Our municipal government put out an order that every company has to come out with a vaccine plan. The head of HR did a hard nope, won't touch it because I knew where this was headed and weeks ago I'd said I'm never taking it and if I get fired so be it I'll sue cause this is illegal, "I dont mind early retirement". I'm betting they did some more poking after that and found out 0% of our guys in production are ever taking it.
It's totally fair to blame them.
... And then they came for me and there was no one left
