Re: Got the HR letter re:OSHA mandate this morning. Curious about how this is playing out for others.
if vaxed can spread it then why aren’t they testing the vaxed also?
 Quoting: Catseye


Everyone should be both vaxxed and tested and everyone should wear a mask!! one isn't a substitute for the other!
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81816261



what I mean is it should worry you that they aren’t testing vaxed people

because it demonstrates that they obviously don’t gaf about stopping the spread, they just want everyone to inject
Forgive your enemies, it messes with their heads.

Re: Got the HR letter re:OSHA mandate this morning. Curious about how this is playing out for others.
It breaks my heart to read the stories here; I can't believe we're all facing this kind of tyrany. I'm sorry to all who are going through this.

It's also mind-boggling to see that there are tons of folks in the world who are just bending over and encouraging these Totalitarian monsters, instead of standing up to them.

I know it's an insane fight, but we need to remember that if tptb get their way with this and/or people submit to their tactics, they will move on from threatening people's employment in the public sector, to those working remotely, independently, etc.

From there they will move on to refusing unvaxxed people the right to grocery shop or move around freely for any reason, bank accounts, social security benefits, retirement etc. etc.

They will find a way to enslave everyone eventually.

This is complete insanity.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 81814150


Thank you for your post it really resonated with me…

In the beginning when the vax was offered at my husbands job he turned it down…not because he knew what it was and what it would lead to BUT because
I did. I insisted he wait, I begged, I pleaded, I threatened divorce but most importantly I Prayed

It has taken him this long to see the sham that this insane nightmare is and his eyes are open to the fact that something just isn’t right. I never say “I told you so” instead I say Thank you and give the Glory to God.

I pray that he is strong enough to face the next steps and do what he needs to which is stand firm.
I pray for everyone facing this situation
May God have Mercy on our souls…
Much Love to you all

Re: Got the HR letter re:OSHA mandate this morning. Curious about how this is playing out for others.
They waited 'til the very last minute to send us the vaccination attestment form.

I remain unvaxxed, as does one other team member on a team of 6.

My company is great. I love it there. They are so good to their employees.

There's not a snowball's chance in hell I'd get the shot.

I have a feeling they will go out of their way to make sure they retain everyone they can, regardless of status.

I'm unclear as to how this applies to remote employees, because I'm practically remote as it is. I have an office, but I only go in once or twice a week.

I might be willing to get regular tests, as I think that they will go out of their way to make that convenient, perhaps on-site testing.

I'm a software developer and never have a problem finding jobs - recruiters find them for me ... and I'm not at all worried about a layoff if it comes to that. In my state you can collect unemployment insurance even if fired for cause.

So however it plays out I'll be fine.

I'd love to hear about others' experience.

I can't wait to see what happens February 9, which is the deadline to enforce the mandate.
 Quoting: SugarSand


I got my notice from Kelly Services today. I work 100% remote and they still are requiring the vax or be tested. I suppose I will be out of my job very soon.

My daughter went to HR and said the tests felt like she was being violated and they immediately freaked out and said she could do the saliva test instead. Every week they sent them and she just ignored the pile and no one ever said anything. She ended up quitting an $80k a year engineering job over that crap and is going back to get her PHD.

They also told them they would NEVER require the vaccine but now they are. They said they will just hire new people. Funny thing is they haven’t been able to even fill her position yet so not sure where all these NEW employees will be coming from.

My husband and I are both self employed and under the mininum employees required for the mandate...My daughter and son both work for the USPS, they are I guess immune as employees since Biden granted them their life and rights for some unknown reason. My other son is 10, our state is not requiring the vaccine for school, Thank God, or I would have started home school. I feel blessed but my heart aches for the millions not in my situation and I am just waiting for them to figure out a way to get me as well. I will test until the day I die if it comes to that, I will not be forced into a medical decision. If I take it, it will be my decision.

My elderly parents are included. They both still work, retirement didn't suit them I guess. My father already has a heart condition which has gotten worse since the first jab. His heart now stops and he blacks out for a few seconds and then he is fine. They can't give us a reason or a cause, he is on a heart monitor when he sleeps currently. He has been a welder for the same company for 45 years. They are still working him daily with the knowledge of the blackouts (It has happend at work) and they still allow him to weld... But By God he will be vaxxed, safety first now...

They both think it is safe, they think I am crazy for warning them, crazy to not trust the govenment.... I guess my Dad's unknown heart condition is just coincidence 3 weeks post vaccine.

I really don't want to lose my parents at only 65...Prayers and postive thoughts for everyone dealing with this right now.

Re: Got the HR letter re:OSHA mandate this morning. Curious about how this is playing out for others.
I signed the form and sent it back today, asserting that I am not currently vaccinated.

I was going to wait until they bugged me, since there was no deadline given. But I'm not going to get the shot no matter what, and my company always does good by employees. So I sent it back so my coworkers' paperwork can be in order as needed without bugging me. People who feel differently about their own HR departments and company policies might respond differently.

Good for you with being able to avoid this nonsense, and I'm sorry for the worry for your parents.

My mom still works, too. She's teacher. Age 67, been teaching 41 years. Won't quit. Got the shots.

We've been lucky with her so far, no problems.

Her workplace (a parochial school) already implemented the vaccine or test requirement at the beginning of the school year. She didn't get vaxxed to keep her job ... nothing was going to stop her from getting the shots ASAP to "end this madness" and "Get back to normal", etc.

The school hired a testing company that comes in once a week and tests everyone who needs to be tested on site, to minimize the inconvenience for workers.

This is a poor, diocesan-funded Catholic school, accommodating their employees best they can.

These companies who are making their employees pay and travel and wait in line before it's absolutely necessary, and not doing on site testing ... those companies are power tripping assholes. There's no reason for that except the old school, power-tripping boss mentality. Shame on them.

Well, hopefully employees can take this reprieve and look at their employers' policies and decide:

Was my employer looking out for employees?

OR

Was my employer power-tripping, covering their ass or kissing others' asses at the expense of employees?

If your job sucks, now's the time to find another.
