Came to work today and learned that one of my maintenance guys got his first shot a couple of days ago. He has called in for the last 3 days. Today his face was swollen and he can't sign his name. This danger is real. I saw it with my own eyes.
UPDATE After further discussion tonight I found out that he didn't understand about the vax. He told me he needed to get his next shot next week. I told him he should wait and not do that since it was so hard on him. Then he tells me something extremely disturbing. He said he was he already had 2 shots but since the vax he took was not approved he thought he had to do it again. This is freaking unbelievable. I almost yelled at him. I told him to STOP and he is fully vaxed and to not take anymore shots and that its going to kill you if you do it again.
So I now have first hand knowledge of what the booster will do unwittingly. Everyone who is against the vax is coming up to me asking if he is going to be OK. I am deeply concerned about him now. I'm seriously not making this shit up.
To your point I work for a major corporation and repair, service, and trouble shoot highly complex electro-mechanical equipment in a very niche field. Takes about five years to gain any level of competency. They’ve asked about our status but have said they will not mandate. They asked because some of our customers have asked. I think it’s bullshit but I answered their questionnaire. After 3 emails ignored my boss delivered it by hand and said “answer don’t answer either way” he’s based also and will never get it. I told all the higher ups they will be the CEO’s of a pile of ashes if they push this because all the technicians will quit. Become irreplaceable and you’re golden.
