Agree 100%. What a dangerous precedent that legal teams and HR departments qualify individual religious beliefs. I’m assuming I will still get approved but it was funny when they thought they had cornered me… I hope you get yours too. It’s wild how different each process is for every employer / institution.

Definitely not the first time. Most people get to write one letter. I submitted 60. One for flu and one for COVID at 30 different hospitals. And have won. Only a few remaining that are rejecting all exemptions for VENDORS specifically. Not for their employees.

And you are right. I talked on the phone with them a few months ago and they said "We reserve the right do that." And I asked "Where? And how?" Response: "I'm not going to sit here and argue with you."

They have a policy that allows exemptions for employees. They do not test or know their patient's vaccine status when they walk through the door. But they know the medical history of a vendor rep who's there sporadically to support the proper implantation of medical devices - and choose to deny them their rights. It's absurd.

I asked them, "So if I'm walking in to support a surgery unvaccinated, I'm not allowed in. But when I break my ankle on the curb on the way to the front door, I'm allowed to come in?" In one situation, I'm making money from them. In another, I'm making money for them....

Stutters and stammers. Every time. If it truly was about health, they wouldn't allow exemptions for the ones who literally touch their patients all day. It's not. It's to keep the ones who charge them money out of the door.

Totally agree and would LOVE to do that for real. It’s a little more complicated as my employer is stating that without access to my client hospitals, I am no longer meeting “job requirements” (a threat to fire me). Also…with a limited geographical territory and only certain hospitals performing procedures with my products - it’s hard to hit my job metrics without these facilities. I wish I had more leverage but right now they have it all. Edited to add: regardless… not getting vaxxed ever 😂

Each person is the absolute ruler (King/Queen/Sovereign) of their own life. Any other attempt at creating a society without this core principle stated explicitly will result in a reduction in human potential, and eventually lead to what we have now.

This is frightening. The fact that we have lived unrepentant and disobedient for ages is why we are here. Believing we are all our own gods is EXACTLY why we see what we see now. The real reduction of human potential is living apart from God without Truth, without Order, without humility.

This whole cycle isn’t meant to be repeated. We’ve just messed it up each time because we have yet to become fully surrendered to the Creator. It can be ended - starting with strong men who quit bowing to their impulses, stand up for the defenseless and quit seeking comfortable, easy lives. And stop believing we are the God of our lives.

Can someone please direct me to strong, Patriot lawyers to help with religious exemptions?

People don’t realize this mandate also applies to the medical device vendors that support surgeons and patients in these Ascension facilities. These vendors are employed by a manufacturer but subjected to the mandate of their CLIENT. And then the manufacturer can pass the buck on to their employee, saying, “If you can’t access your client hospitals, then you are fired.”
