I was hired for a really great role at a great company. Three Zoom interviews and no mention of the vax. The hiring manager told me upper management had loved me.
I was all set to begin work soon and then this email came:
“I hope you are well.
Would you please forward your proof of vaccination and boosters to us so we can have them on file?“
To which I responded that I was not vaccinated. Two days later they fired me in an email, saying should I wish to get vaxed, they would consider talking to me again.
Standing strong in my truth today, but it stings a little....
Thanks for sharing. This brings up a good question, and I’m interested in other’s opinion. “Why do I need to share my shot history with anyone?” If someone asks me, I can respond with “no comment”. When they say I was not responsive, that’s BS because I did respond. When they say that they have to interpret my “no comment” statement as “you didn’t get the shot”, isn’t that discriminatory? Why not egg them on (like by responding, “so are you saying that your company has different policies for employees based on your opinion of them?, Or, why is your company trying to give me so-called medical advice? Does your company think they know how to keep me from getting sick?)……all of this stinks of discrimination! Its always been a choice (to take a shot or not). My 2 cents….build a case and fight for truth!
I am really sad about the job but I do hope these people wake up one day. There will be no one managing the office. They’ll all be dead!
