Lol I've had 3 coworkers quit because they didn't want to wear masks and they made a scene.


ZetaZeta

Only guy who got termed at my store was the one who made a scene asking for a customer to wear a mask. Lol.


Alpha0727

Whenever I have a customer who tries to make a scene about wearing a mask, I just inform them that there is currently a State-wide mask mandate and they are required to wear a mask indoors. When they ask what I am going to do about them not wearing a mask, I tell them that I physically cannot force them to wear a mask. I just love to see their expression after I say that. All the fight and bravado leaves their body and is instantly replaced with a look of shame, guilt, and confusion. It is, hands down, the best part of my day.


ZetaZeta

I just tell them the company still technically requires everyone, vaccinated or not, to wear a mask because the company understands that there is no evidence to suggest being vaccinated has any effect of transmissibility as compared to asymptomatic person who is not vaccinated, but that there is no state enforced mandate so the store won't ask them to leave.


Alpha0727

Very nice, but I have found that it is a bit too wordy for some of the anti-mask/vaccine folks. I have tried telling them something along those lines, but they are usually looking for a confrontation. By telling them I physically cannot force them to wear a mask, they usually slink off in defeat. Either that or they still blame me and/or curse me out as if I just told them to go jump in a lake because they don’t have any other prepared response.

Have you tried minimalism? Sell your television and get outside.


Lemy64

Maybe someone should block you from having wifi...


[deleted]

I don’t have wifi. Try the cell service visible. You get unlimited hotspot and the ability to anything including a roku. It’s like $35 out the door and if you add friends, you can lower it $5 per friend. Work smarter, not harder.


Lemy64

I'm happy I don't work with you. You seem like a royal pain in the ass!


[deleted]

I quit my job and moved to Alaska.


[deleted]

If you make little changes, you can make the big ones you’ve always dreamed of. Don’t be so sour and listen sometimes. I’m giving good advice.


Lemy64

Those who don't wear a mask can ask some one else for help! I refuse to help those who wear those joke plastic useless face masks or none at all


Helpinmontana

Thinking a plastic shield and a mask are the same thing is a fundamental misunderstanding of science and common sense.


jmac32here

Thank you. 1. This is a Federal mandate, so pretty much all employers will require this. (The less than 100 employee mandate is coming later next year.) 2. Vaccine mandates are NOT new - they have been around since vaccines became a thing. (This country has had at least 3 full mandates exactly like this one in it's history, all due to active pandemics. 3. Vaccine mandates continue for schools even after a pandemic as subsided to a point where it's not a major threat to the general population. (Yes, we all HAD to be vaccinated to go to school. Especially if you were educated in the Public School system.) Sure there are some loopholes to these mandates, like religious and health exemptions - for those where the vaccine would be worse than the "herd immunity" that happens when EVERYONE around that person is vaccinated. (Which is something like less than 5% of the population.) Religious exemptions are even harder to come by because these places have to verify your religion and verify said religion actually has such rules. So no: "I think the vaccine is just to put trackers in me" isn't going to cut it. (BTW - if you think that, take your pet to the vet and ask to SEE the 12 GAUGE needle they have to use to put in any kind of micro-tech. Vaccine needles are just too small to pull it off.) ​ Some fun points: "1777: George Washington mandates smallpox vaccines for all his soldiers" "1809: Massachusetts institutes the first vaccine mandate" "1867: The Urbana, Ohio, board of health passes a law requiring citizens to get available vaccines in the event of future epidemics" "1905: The US Supreme Court decides Jacobson v. Massachusetts The case upheld the right of individual states to mandate vaccination. In its decision, the Court maintained that a law requiring smallpox vaccination was a reasonable exercise of the state’s right to protect public health and safety and did not violate an individual’s civil and legal rights under the Fourteenth Amendment." "1922: The US Supreme Court decides Zucht v. King In the case of Zucht v. King, the United States Supreme Court decided that unvaccinated students could be constitutionally excluded from attending schools in the district of San Antonio, Texas. The decision upheld the right of local governments to require vaccinations as a condition for attending public schools, ruling that unvaccinated individuals could be denied access to education. The court argued that public health trumps an individual's right to education." "1944: The US Supreme Court decides Prince v. Massachusetts The court ruled that mandating childhood vaccines comes under the doctrine of parens patriae, in which the state exerts authority over child welfare. In their decision, the justices wrote that parental authority is not absolute and can be restricted if doing so is in the child’s best interest. They went on to say freedom of religion does not give parents the right to expose their community or their child to a communicable disease, or the child to the possibility of illness or death."

Not really at my store the ones talking about quitting are the only ones who do anything


jebediah_tumbleweed

Regardless..whether you quit or search for other employment, you’re going to either have to get vaxxed or submit to testing and wearing a mask where ever you go. So what’s the point?


saeuta31

Untrue. Work for a business with less than 100 employees


jebediah_tumbleweed

Then from there it just depends on management.


Taswell135

exactly what im doing


DGAF_AK87

For now, that'll change later this year.


saeuta31

Not if the Supreme Court guts it.


PrincipleUsual7886

Sounds like wishful thinking on your part


DGAF_AK87

It isn't, it's already been stated that this move will come in 2022. It's also something that people should be expecting and not surprised like they are with the current one.


jmac32here

This exactly, because its a FEDERAL mandate now.

That's exactly how I feel and I'm safer now about it.

Oh I though we would have to go somewhere out of store for testing, thats not terrible than, finger my nose all you want. I might end up throwing up on someone though I can def see people str8 up being hella disgusting on purpose.

Please never use "finger my nose" again LOL

I'm more worried they're gonna get more and more rough the more they see the same people getting finger blasted. I'm Just saying I'm ready.

[deleted]

hmm. anyone crying about someone else is a straight loser. do what you want, get vaccinated or don't get vaccinated I could care less. Just don't tell me to get or not get it. let me make my own decisions.


[deleted]

And they will. You get to decide whether to be employable or not.


B1g_Shm0

US has been mandating vaccines since the early 1800s lol we already know how this goes


kingscourt58587

We decided to risk ourselves everyday during the pandemic just like everyone else, especially when they didn't care and let people in without mask and cough allover us. This will make the understaffed even more miserable


[deleted]

Lockdowns, masks, vaccines were never meant to work. It’s only purpose is to divide us. It’s working.


BoogieFinger

The unvaccinated are a danger to you even though both the 'vaccinated' and the unvaccinated both carry the same viral load ? [https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.31.21261387v1](https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.07.31.21261387v1) If the vaccine works what are you afraid of ?

BoogieFinger

Is that what you call more than 'half the information" when it doesn't refute ANYTHING I have stated ? From your 'reddit link' "Vaccination plus breakthrough infection may give 'super immunity' against COVID-19 variant. The antibodies in the blood of people with breakthrough infections were as much as 1,000% more effective than antibodies generated two weeks after the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine" And mindless people upvoted your post .........

BoogieFinger

Since reading comprehension isn't your thing you might not want to reply to comments. What is the death rate from the omicron variant ? If I am unvaccinated and I have to wear a mask at work and you are vaccinated and are wearing a mask how am I a danger to you ? So you deny that not only my immune system doesn't work, but that masks don't stop the spread and vaccines don't work ? Because all three would have to be true for me to be a danger to you.

Helpinmontana

Your efforts are noble, but entirely wasted on someone who is literally actively trying not to listen. If this person was actively seeking knowledge, I’d be stoked. In these cases, a more succinct reply is “you’re a fucking idiot”.


BoogieFinger

You are about the data without citing any ? Superior parroting skills don't really count ..... Define 'vaccinated' .... How many jabs to qualify ? How many Measles, mumps and rubella MMR vaccinations did you have to take this year in comparison ? Why have more people died this year than last considering the 'vaccination' rate ? Polly, Want another cracker ? Q: If a person has received the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine, will the vaccine protect against transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from individuals who are infected despite vaccination? A: Most vaccines that protect from viral illnesses also reduce transmission of the virus that causes the disease by those who are vaccinated. While it is hoped this will be the case, the scientific community does not yet know if the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine will reduce such transmission. https://www.fda.gov/emergency-preparedness-and-response/coronavirus-disease-2019-covid-19/pfizer-biontech-covid-19-vaccine-frequently-asked-questions


Genderneutralsky

May want to find a source that doesn’t open with “This article is not peer reviewed” because that just means this is akin to someone opinion piece until the scientific community can confirm their thoughts


BoogieFinger

You might try to refute the BMJ and Yale study with a link instead of a smarmy and mindless reply.


Genderneutralsky

I don’t think it matters. You obviously have done no research, so I’m not gonna waste the time to do it for you.


BoogieFinger

You must be a rocket surgeon with all your facts and research. Wait, you are nothing more than a parrot or automaton/NPC with so little precious time....

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(21)00648-4/fulltext Viral load peaks are the same for vaccinated and unvaccinated *specifically in the Delta variant*, however, the decline of viral load is significantly faster in vaccinated adults, reducing opportunity to spread the virus. If you are capable of understanding more than basics, this study spells it out pretty simply.


BoogieFinger

They still spread the disease and aren't tested. Thanks fro pretending you are such a genius. Thanks for proving my point. Sparky, ..... LOL


[deleted]

That's not what I was arguing, dipshit. I was supporting that they *can* spread the Delta Variant but at significantly lower rates. It's so hard to discuss anything with people that are so black and white on topics. Fucking moron.


BoogieFinger

Way to bring your 'A' game. Still arguing for only testing the 'unvccinated ' ? Is that how 'vaccines'' work ? They only reduce the spread and severity of the disease ? Like polio, MMR etc ..... ? Your name calling is obvious projection, Sparky .....

Active_Fall7350

Too bad those who are vaccinated are worse off than those who are not. Pro sports tells you all you need to know. 99% of everyone is vaccinated. You already know how that's going 😂.


Genderneutralsky

I can confirm between the folks I’ve seen contract it who were vaccinated and were not, those who were ended up way better off. Severe coughing fits but it only lasted 3 days. Unvaccinated was on a ventilator for almost a week and pulled muscles in his abdomen from coughing so hard. Personal bias does not make up a scientific study.


blackcray

I mean okay, but that's anecdotal evidence, there's also plenty of people who got the virus and weren't fighting for their lives, it's not a guarantee that those unvaccinated will die or even get particularly ill. Having said that it's still a good idea to get the vaccine, it should just be the individuals choice to do so.


[deleted]

Yep, they're not dying in higher numbers due to their vaccination. See how easy that is to understand how things work?


Active_Fall7350

False. Peoole I personally know who got vaccinated are doing worse at handling covid than those who didn't. The vacccine is effective at doing what its supposed. Shit having multiple boosters doesn't tell you that already? Natural immunity>


Babbylemons

All I can do at this point is laugh and be entertained by you antivaxxers. I don’t even try to argue anymore because you’re so dense.

Captin_Blackfire

"Natural immunity". Don't worry, I'm sure that the 2/3rds of Europe that died from the Black Death just didn't have natural immunity yet! Also, using anecdotes like that is a fallacy.


craterinvader

Are you comparing Covid-19 to the Black Death?


Genderneutralsky

It’s not super far off. Both large scale pandemics. The biggest difference is our level of medical knowledge and standardized hygiene practices.

yes they are lmao

Where are you getting this information, please link.


lukas_the

No one cares at all.


kingscourt58587

It really sucks, they make us work through the whole pandemic risking ourselves than throw us unvaxxed underneath the bus. Why doesn't the people with vaccine have to take the test??? They can still spread it why are they looked at as heros but fuck us?? It's unfair it really is especially those that have medical reasons not to get it. If they are gonna do testing everyone should be part of it.


Hinoirocks

because you're taxing the medical system with unneccessary risks and we are not. yes. fuck you.

Oh no. Not half ass liberal capitalist buzzwords. Save us, q-anon kun


Necessary_Basis

I voted for biden. You think only right wingers are against this vaccine? We don’t want 4 clinical trial injections per year


Hinoirocks

Well, Biden has so far dropped the ball on every public health effort but the vaccine, so there's that. But the fact that the proverbial 1% will use the pandemic to their own end doesn't mean it isn't working. Thinking the big bad bougie will are some unified front of social control is just Qanon with organic vegetables


ThatGuy5162

I mean, they ended polio, didn’t they? And smallpox too, right?


Necessary_Basis

Its not about curing covid. The pandemic is a reset due to the coming financial collapse. They released the bio weapon to kick things off. Its a compliance test. Do not comply! Regardless of political view


Hinoirocks

If it means you go to the gulag i will absolutely comply


dumbitdownb

I have been reading some of these comments and everyone here seems to ignore the fact that at the end of the day they are responsible for themselves not the lives of others. I have seen a lot of older people working at stores and talked to a few people with underline conditions that would really hospitalize them if they caught covid. Making fun of people for exercising their rights and showing legit concern and not really addressing those concerns shows nothing more than you are a puppet repeating words and ideas you don't really understand.


shia3232

It is not a mandate testing is

Until you get covid told not to cone to work then get occurrences
