How many of you are willing to lose your jobs rather than get vaccinated?

Or even walk away if you ARE vaccinated but know boosters will also be required?

That reality could easily be facing me soon. I’m wondering just how many of us are out there.

I've already told my boss to not expect me to come in if we get that mandate and to be ready to hear from HR as I take them to court over possibly endangering my life by trying to force me to take an experimental drug.

I am refusing the vaccine. My employers can do what they will but I am doubtful that they will fire me when a multi-million dollar contract depends on my work. I might be asked to work from home.

Same thing really. By “walk away” I mean sacrifice it for the sake of principles.

I'll bounce out.

Our work has offered a $5k "lottery" for all employees already vaccinated and an additional $5k lottery for people vaccinated between 8/20 and 10/1. Email was sent out last week. I'm expecting a pseudo-mandate of some kind by end of year, but way too many of the plant baws will refuse to vaccinate so they will do something to try to make our life miserable, instead.

If docs were giving out opioids for years I’m sure there are cards you can get if you look hard enough. Problem solved

I don’t accept their control and power over me.

I will leave on my own terms.


This may not make sense but quitting inverts the power dynamic. My director is now begging me to stay.

I would but don’t expect it to be an issue for me at least. Work with too many minorities who don’t want it lol. Still it’s despicable for anyone to be forced

I’ll think about it. I’m more interested in getting America First lawyers motivated to pushback against this authoritarian government/Corporatocracy.

I am willing to walk away over it.

I am far enough into my career and saved enough to force them to fire me.

I would welcome a few months off before my next job that I could do remotely.

Willing, I’m not sure.

I’m hoping to avoid being forced into having to make the decision.

I’m not anti-vax, and would have already taken if had I not had Covid previously.

However, frick a mandate.

At this point, I really don’t know.

I’ll cross that bridge when I get to it.

I got vaccinated but I won't be proving it to keep my job.

HAHA, you were probably forced to take a drug test.
