Sorry for the lag in continuing this series. A flurry of activity and shifting targets have kept me off balance, but now I'm bringing my guns around to aim for the top. For the history, and some of the rationale for my approach, check out these posts:
And now, on with part 4...
Two weeks ago, Siemens (no sense being discrete at this point) escalated their demands of medical interventions by notifying all US employees that they must be injected by 8 Dec. This came from the US head of HR. I pivoted away from my pending legal challenge to concentrate on this new threat. I reworked my previous Conditional Acceptance of the masking and testing mandates to object to the forced injections and fired it off to HR before the end of business. I got a canned response within an hour.
For some reason, this new policy was not brought up at the following Monday's status meeting, even though we always discuss policies that might affect any one of us. So on Tuesday, I dropped this bomb on every employee in our unit across the US, including management (~30 people):
.
To my fellow U.S. workers,
Since Wednesday's announcement from K.O. did not come up as a topic in this morning's development huddle, I bring it up now -- it is too important to dismiss. No matter your personal feelings or situation, I suggest that you read my entire note. Failing that, at least absorb the next block. Especially if you have, or hope to have children:
[warning: plagiarized GA meme]
If you don’t stand up,
your children will Inherit a world
where they won’t be able to.
That’s actually the conclusion. Read on for the details.
So what qualifies as "vaccinated?" Currently it's one, or two injections. But that could easily become three, like it has in Israel. Or maybe four, like Singapore is considering. Clearly we're on a slippery slope here. And once the slide starts, what’s to stop Siemens from imposing any medical interventions on any employee, anywhere, at any time? Eventually, maybe even on family members? (As a Louisiana health provider is already doing.)
A technocratic future of medical tyranny lies along this path. It does not need our consent; it requires only our silence. People really need to be thinking past the mandated December 8th deadline. Because, rest assured, that will not be the end. We've all watched "two weeks to flatten the curve" morph into two years.
It’s plain to see that this is not about your health. It has never been about your health. K.O. admits as much in the second paragraph of his announcement: Jabbing us is about keeping the government funds flowing. He couldn’t be more blatant. Or more disrespectful to us as human beings.
Well, I’d like to ask K., just how much, in terms of employee liberty and bodily autonomy, is he willing to pay to keep that seat at the federal feeding trough? Do bean counters conduct a risk (for the employees) versus benefit (for the company) analysis in order to decide?
One can't help wondering about the PR impact of a German company violating all ten points of the Nuremberg Code forbidding medical experimentation on humans? (And the vaccine is experimental, since it's only available under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA). The FDA "approval" is for a product that is not yet even being manufactured! The only way you can comply is by injecting a non-approved drug.)
For those of you considering the exemption route. I wish you luck, but they will only be available "under rare and very limited circumstances." Should you get one, you can bet that it will be yanked the moment the bean counters decide it’s to their benefit. And you won't have a leg to stand on, because you will have already tacitly agreed that Siemens has authority over your body. Be sure to keep the following in mind as you're filling out the application: A free man does not ask for his rights. He asserts them.
Finally, you do not have to make a Faustian bargain with Siemens. You can fight. There is so much wrong with want they are trying to do to us. To get an idea, see the attached Conditional Acceptance I sent to educate Mr. Owens on this. My conditions enumerate some of the many ways he is being unlawful, and violating state and federal laws. At the very root, however, is the fact that Siemens has zero lawful authority over your body. As a free man or woman, you are its sole sovereign.
I don’t know what supposed variant we’re at, but I can guarantee that the last variant is totalitarianism. This is the hill to die on. The choice is stark: you die on your feet, or you live on your knees. My choice is made.
You all need to make yours. I suppose many already have. If not, take heart: if you have questions, want a sounding board, want to take action, or consider legal options, feel free to contact me in confidence at <private_e-mail> or at <private_phone>.

(Note that the use of "you" and `"your" is meant to personalize, not to cast blame or shame.)
Disappointingly, only one person contacted me, and that was only out of curiosity. But over the ensuing week, six people communicated their displeasure with the policy to me.
While this was going on, a follow up to the new requirement, complete with an FAQ to "guide" us in rolling up our sleeves, came through. This one was in the name of the US CEO, CFO and the same HR head. Another change in target!
When the Monday meeting rolled around, management explained how they weren't trying to hide anything, it's just that this is the way things are, so why spend time on it. Siemens can do whatever they want. I objected, saying that it needs to be brought out so people don't feel isolated, which I'm sure is the reason for keeping things mum. And that a company cannot violate law, or trample on our natural and protected rights.
Well, that topic got shut down pretty quick. I then went on to say that someone will need to pick up my projects, because I have zero motivation to spend any time on them, nor do I really care. The only Siemens related matter I'm concerned about at present, is preparing my legal case against Siemens US. Again I got shut down, but at least folks know who the lightening rod is.
The way things stand now, I reached an agreement with my manager to check-in for a half hour, three times a day over the next three weeks to provide expertise, and to lend a hand. The rest of the time I will spend on my case, all with full pay.
Today I am combining the two actions (mask & vaxx) into one, and will be sending it off to the CEO, and everyone down the line. This cover letter is a bit tougher, because only the lawyers are reading the documents. I don't think the aggressors realize just what they stand to lose personally. This should help them see it a little better, and maybe to start to doubt what they are doing:
In response to your Follow up on Siemens' COVID-19 vaccine requirement, I will accept the guidance put forth in the associated DI SW US COVID-19 Vaccine Mandate FAQs and the previous Office Reopening FAQs, provided that you satisfactorily address the conditions in my attached Conditional Acceptance, point-by-point and in affidavit form.
That is, I will comply only after you have accepted responsibility under your full commercial liability: that I will either suffer no harm, or will be financially provided for in the event of any side-effects; that you are complying with applicable state and federal laws (e.g., USC Title 21 § 360bbb-3); that you are respecting my human rights as protected under the 1st, 4th, 5th and 6th Amendments; and that you have the lawful authority to impose medical interventions on me. Otherwise, I am under no obligation to participate in these measures.
This notice serves to consolidate previous notices already sent to others. There has been a flurry of activities with regard to medical interventions of late. As the chief promulgator of these measure, you are now the principal of my legal action. Those acting on your behalf to instigate the measures that have become known to me are included as agents. I have copied them on this e-mail.
As participants in the roll-out, instigation, implementation, and enforcement of said measures, each company officer needs to appreciate that they will be held responsible in their personal capacities for any financial, physical or emotional injuries I may suffer as a result of following any "guidance" made under threat of termination.

Going forward there should be no more resets of the timeline, since I'm now at the top. Future reports will be focused on the unfolding of the current actions.
I didn't see this update a couple weeks ago, but am glad I checked in. Sounds like things are progressing. Regardless of how it turns out, you are to be commended for standing up. If my Fortune 100 employer comes down on me, I hope I can summon the courage to follow your lead.
Question: what if they give you the affidavit agreeing to your conditional acceptance? Will you get the jab or quit? Or will you then have to sue?
Question 2: what will you do if they ignore you and just terminate you? Will you then have to sue the principal? For what damages, and will you need representation at that time?
Question 3: If I am laying on the tracks, and I see this train headed my way, can I do something besides pray that devolution takes place soon and the switch is flipped, sending the train down a dead-end track? For instance, can I be pre-emptive and start fighting the little wars now (no vax requirement, but masks and removal of travel privileges already in place)?
Thanks in advance. If you'd prefer to DM me that is fine but others might be interested to see your answers, also.
God's speed, fren.
Free Country, Part 5 is up and available for your reading pleasure. Might be something useful in there for you.
Thanks fren. Just in time…got my email last week.
Yikes, the clock is running!
How you doin' Free Country? I once knew a country that went by that name. Maybe you're related. Such nostalgia.
This entire approach is premised on Common Law, which I have learned is indeed the law of the land. And it does put we the people in charge. I believe it, because I've seen the legal basis for it, but do I really believe it? We'll find out, because I'm too committed to back out now.
It sort of all depends on everyone following the law, which would seem to be a big weakness. But the people we're dealing with actually make this a strength -- all they have done their entire parasitic lives is use the over 61 million statutes to steal through "legal" means by following the letter of the law. They don't know how to do anything other than follow it. Unfortunately for them, our founding documents put the Common Law over their statutory swamp.
My fight with Siemens is entering the final stages. I sent a reminder notice giving them five more days to address my conditions on Friday. That ties into your first question -- they really can't answer the conditions to any degree of satisfaction without admitting to the fraud they are engaged in. For example, their is no non-EUA CV drug available in the US, and to force someone to take an experimental drug is against federal law. There is no way they can square that circle. If they attempt to, I am under no obligation to accept nonsensical answers, so I have no fear on that front.
And to feed into your second question, they are pretty much ignoring me when not patronizing me with company dogma and expecting me to comply. Neither intellectual persuasion nor negotiation are part of their arsenal.
The next step in the process is to serve the principal and all the agents I know of with notices of default and estoppel. Theoretically, all these actors now become liable in their personal capacities for any further harassment, threats or coercion. If they continue I serve them with a notice of violation of estoppel, and a notice of liability and fee schedule. The suggested fee is $100K a day! They are trampling our natural and constitutional rights as human beings, after all.
To actually enforce damages would require filing for an ex parte hearing and eventually a conference with a judge. The plan is to represent myself, which is less frightening than it sounds, because my entire argument will be in the submitted documents. I will simply, stand on my paperwork.
Like I implied, I'm in this to the end: I am a few years shy of checking out of the corporate world; am healthy, and have savings with no debt. Even if I win, after this farce, I have no interest in working for Siemens any longer.
I think you should start fighting now. Even though I haven't done anything except modify legal templates and send them to my aggressors, I am technically in a legal process -- they cannot take any action against me until it is resolved. If they do it only adds to my case and opens them up to even greater damages.
Who knows? You start the process, which essentially evolves into a game of legal chicken in which you have nothing to lose that you weren't already faced with losing. And if they blink, maybe because they see how this playing out elsewhere, you win without ever having to use any weapon other than a pen. If at the last minute you (or I) lose heart you go quietly into the night, or you back down and take the jab. With enough legal foot dragging, maybe the mandate is found unconstitutional by then. Time is on your side, and in the end, whatever the outcome, fighting beats lying down.
I will be picking up my posts again soon. I will be happy to share my learnings with you, and any other of the people who are interested.
Thank you for your thoughtful reply. Not sure if I'm going to start now, I feel we are really close to a break in their strategy, i.e. the vaccine mandate will be struck down.
Today Pfizer stock up big on promising news about what we here call Pfizermectin, and Moderna down big because wall street, which moves faster than any government or corporation, sees the end of vaccines on the horizon bc of anti-virals. Also Regeneron makes monoclonal antibodies which today were announced to provide prophylactic covid protection for up to 8 months minimum. If you can stomach some volatility, buy REGN (they also make blockbuster drug Dupixent) and trade at only 10 times earnings.
We are certainly living in an eventful period in history, as previous generations who lived through World Wars probably felt. We will once again be a free country, I believe.
I wish you the best and look forward to seeing your future posts.
