I did. When they pushed the vaccine, and said everyone mandated thru companies. I said no and if they want to fire me, I was going to work elsewhere and give up my comfy job.
I did get fired last year from my tech company because I refused the jab. Although I got the religious exemption at the very last moment, the management already planned on firing me. They came up with some other excuse, gave me a performance warning and 3 months later fired me when I didn't accept their terms. Since then, I lost my appetite to work. Just filling out online surveys and making few bucks here and there. I have no interest in fueling the petro-dollar based economy that most of my hard earned money ends up with BlackRocks anyway. Good thing is I don't have to pay taxes this year, since I wasn't employed! Less dollars for the warmongers.
I told my family I was ready to work in restaurants busing dishes and pound some nails. Last thing I wanted to do but if push comes to shove, I will.
Took a loan out of my 401K so less for BlackRock. There isn't much there anyway but the less they got the better. Go buy a vehicle because we have been operating on a one vehicle for a long while now and quite inconvenient.
I converted all my 401k investments from stocks into precious metals. I don't trust stock market, it could collapse any moment. I hear any asset is better than fiat dollar. Vehicle, house, real estate, metals.

I wasn't afraid to say no, but hell no.

If you are in tech, do you know about Upwork? Freelance.
Yeah, I signed up on upwork, yet to finish the resume. Might finish it sometime next year. Freelance, gig works, etc.
Good.

I have very little in there and took out half because if I take everything, I pay hefty penalty.
Hence the reason take out half to buy a car. :)
👆Don’t comply takes conviction. You gotta be willing to lean into it no matter the consequences. It’s the only way.
Yes. Doing the right thing is extremely hard.
..and very satisfying.
Oh yes. Certainly.
