Being fully vaccinated I'm still concerned about the precedent of making a medical procedure a requirement for employment. Almost two years of working remote might lead one to think that accommodation was possible but willfully ignored.

I wonder if there will be successful discrimination lawsuits. I'm kind of frightened at the precedent being set here. I've heard all the "prior precedent" but fail to see it matching the scale of whats happening here.

92% of employees are vaccinated. The % who quit or were terminated over the mandate is 3%:<p>&gt; A separate 3 percent of employees, 1,887, have left their jobs or were terminated as part of the mandate.

With natural immunity showing a better robustness response than the vaccines, I wonder if they had exemptions for that.

Where do they think they will work next? Can they really not see how universal these mandates are becoming? Lifelong unemployment just to prove a point?

I know I should mourn the loss of jobs but I just love this so much.
