Well, my company has issued a vaccine mandate for continued employment. Per them, being a Fed. contractor we must abide by mandates for the stabby and if you are not vaccinated, and don't have a religious or medical exemption by Dec. 8th you will be considered as "resigned" from (company).
This goes even further by stating "fully vaccinated" meaning if you don't get the shots at least 2 weeks prior to the 8th you aren't considered fully vaccinated and will therefore be "resigned".
They are calling this a "choice". I'm calling it coercion.
There will be quite a few long time employees that I know of that will be walking out the door on that date...........or sooner.
I also have to say that I loathe calling it a vaccine when it is more like the flu shot. This whole mandate thing is ridiculous. I'm not against the shots or anything like that, but I am against the govt. pushing this like they are.
Sorry to hear that, NC. It's a travesty. A friend from the Bronx works for a school district there, and was mandated to take it, or else she'd lose her job. She's from the Dominican Republic originally and is a Bronx girl - so she's a tough SOB - and she sobbed while she had to make one of the more difficult decisions of her life for her and her family's well-being. It was tough to even listen to. It's sickening. I don't recognize this country anymore.
