Hi SassyLass, I just want to wish you the best and to stay strong! And you know what they say, misery loves company. =) I have the Oct 18 date (announced last week) as well before being placed on administrative leave (I'm in legal services). They haven't announced up to how long the leave would be. The email did indicate that 90% were vaccinated, but who knows. Also, they said we were at 70%+ vaccinated back in August, and a lot of people left the firm from August till now, so I think some people left ahead of the mandate. It is funny because I work in CA, and the firm is headquartered in TX. The CA office's HR person seemed shocked about the mandate from TX headquarters. It seems... somewhat reversed from what I expected. But then, I've always known this was a pretty-lefty TX firm. Anyway, you will be in my prayers along with all others in this annoying situation. Thank you for helping hold the line!
