re: My company just withdrew the vaccine requirement

I think my company got cold feet and decided to wait and see what happened in the courts.

Same here. First they told us our legal team was finalizing the mandate, and HR asked supervisors and managers to ask employees, anonymously, how many of them were already vaccinated and how many would comply if it was forced.

I know one person in corporate who pretty much tells me the truth any time I ask a question, and he told me that, nationwide, about 30% of employees were already vaccinated. Also, only 10%ish would comply if it was forced. In OK, we have about 100 employees total and about 35% are vaccinated, and 100% of the non-vaxed employees flat out said "you can fire me if you force the shot, I will not comply" (myself included).

At my particular site, three people have taken the shots. The dispatch lady, the plant manager and one guy that works on his own. The rest of us, 19 total (skilled labor [my department] at 2, transportation at 6 and shift labor at 11) have not had the shot and will not take it no matter what.

Pretty sure HR and legal saw what they'd be doing to themselves and completely backed off.
