We knew this was coming. Out of about 50 guys, half got the jab and half of us were against it. Instead of laying off all of us at the same time, they decided to start with the 3 of us that adamantly said no! The others said they would look into it, which bought them some time I guess. There was also an option to apply for religious or medical exemptions. But then you’d have to wear a mask at all times and get tested weekly. I’ll never put a mask on again unless it’s needed from actual harm. And I’m proud to say I never or ever will get tested for a cold. It’s unfortunate, I made good money there and still have a mortgage and other bills to take care of. I think I’m gonna have to leave NY. I realize the states I’d like to go to are probably non union states so I’m not sure what to do. Could use some suggestions frens.

Good carpenters are in HUGE demand in the suburbs! People, like my wife and I, are looking to upgrade older homes they bought, after selling a home for a good profit associated with the current real estate boom. The prices we are getting quoted for things are through the roof, so if you could do jobs for less than the "going rate" you would likely have an unlimited customer base, at least for a few years.
