I was fired for saying I wouldn't get the shot. I work in tech - and it was in Southern California at an extremely "Progressive" entertainment company. I was in great standing, as I was getting paid thousands extra in "top performer" bonuses and have, in writing, that my boss was training me to take over for when he retired in a few years. I spoke up because my company would give me the ability to work remote due to my performance record - but, I knew 3 other people on my team that also didn't want the shot - and they would not be afforded remote work. I spoke out in hopes to publicly set a precedent. Someone reported me to HR stating that my "opinion" was "deeply disturbing". HR called me into a meeting a month later to tell me about that - and despite protest from my boss - HR fired me because I used company time to share something "divisive and disruptive". Meanwhile, the months leading up to that - we watched our co workers spam 400 person meeting chats about how much they hated the people not getting shots - and listened to them say the same at the beginning of smaller meetings in "small talk".
I have the entire situation recorded on video.
When the right time comes, there's definitely going to be a lawsuit.
