...which vax would you elect to take, and why? Reason I ask? I may be facing that dilemma this coming week.
I am a middle aged white guy, unemployed, not a slacker. I have two daughters in elementary/middle school. I have LOTS of skillz to bring to the employment table. In fact, I am getting interview after interview, and they are going well so far. I expect to get at least one offer soon, maybe two. The jobs I am interviewing for a quite different, speaking to the big skill set I mentioned: Communications department of a large private school producing videos, etc.; Applications Developer job with a large government lab where I would acquire some type of security clearance; An engineering design job with a medium-sized manufacturer; A Web Development job with a company in another state. I can do all of those things, and a lot more.
Here's the sticking point (pun intended): The jobs I feel good about so far.. I would need to be "fully vaccinated" to be hired. I would sincerely love to tell them all to kiss my honky ass, but I am almost out of money. I need to do something very soon.
So if you were in this predicament, what would you do? Which vaccine is "safest"? I don't believe any of them are, and it's basically like playing Russian Roulette no matter what you do. Am I wrong?
This is frustrating because we should have ACTED long before we found ourselves this far up shit creek.
The gun was rhetorical, as it usually is in this context. And I'm the idiot.
You're NOT an idiot. I understand you're in a bad situation. I will be in the same one in 2 weeks. I wish I could help you in some way. Just please don't get the shot. I don't want to lose anyone else I care about.
