You gon pretend that there isn’t a shyt ton of breakthrough cases with Omicron?

I'm boosted and got it. So did other coworkers. Difference is, we were missing like 1 day, 2 days max a piece each. Nobody was having to pick up our shyt in the meanwhile. This coworker has been out for two weeks now.

Find a remote job or move to a Red state where the mandates don't exist.

They're not firing warehouse workers because they're already seasons behind due to the supply chain crisis and their stock has already been downgraded.

BTW, the lawsuits are coming especially if these are employees who were in great standing.
A lot of Red states are right to work.
It's the Blue states that needed something like this to empower them.

The Nike Warehouse here says vaccination or a negative COVID test weekly is what I've heard from people who work there.

Even remote jobs are requiring the vaccination as I interviewed with one earlier this week that asked me about my vaccination status. She was careful in how she worded the question, but I insinuated what she was referring to.
Part of that may even be because whether you were vaccinated or not, you are going to be on one of their health plans. Not choosing the vaccine potentially makes you an outsized expense of your own choosing.

This shyt is a lawsuit waiting to happen. :francis:

What Nike is doing (and other companies for that matter) is not legal at all.
Why are people so confident when they're making shyt up? As long as your employment isn't contractual, employers can fire for not being vaccinated.

At-will or not, they know the lawsuits are coming. Citi is doing the same and withholding peoples bonuses. They can only get them if they sign waivers that say they won't sue.

At will employees wont get shyt clown

That's not even what right to work means :snoop:

Right to work means that you're not required to join unions in order to be employed.
I don’t appreciate you correcting me :ufdup:

At will employment brehs
What grounds do you have to sue when it's literally in your signed contract that either your or the company can end employment whenever and for whatever reason...........
any vaccination based discrimination claim would have already been bought by anti vax home schoolers who children couldn't go to public school. so what's the precedent to win here?

the new competitive edge will be remote work, that doesn't require vaccination. Those the jobs the most in demand ppl will be fighting over and the rest will have to put up with having to come into the office and being subject to shyt like this. I have an offer that's fully remote and just got off the phone with a recruiter that's offering fully remote and he had a whole portion of his spill that was basically "our employees will NEVER have to come into the office and can live anywhere" :ehh:

I'm fully vaxxed and boosted but personally I think firing people over vaccination status, when vax ppl still get and spread covid is kind of wild. Better to just limit in office requirements imo
What jobs are the most needed for at home gigs?

Telemarketing
Data entry?
IT ?
