Vaccine Conversation Today

Was in a production meeting waiting for it to start. People were talking about random things and of course "Covid" gets brought up. (please realize the irony that I am in a closed & unventilated room with these people..because they were willing to share their vaccine status they get to be maskless...because i refuse to share my status they assume i am not vaccinated and therefore force me to wear a mask).

Production Assistant: "Hey, did you all notice how its literally ONLY the engineers and programmers who don't want to get vaccinated? Why is that?"

Machinist: "They have critical thinking skills. Most of the people here (motioning to the room) do what they're told at work and in life".

Room went dead silent, a few people chuckled, am starting to get really turned off by people. =/ Was very uncomfortable sitting there as a "second class" employee with a mask on.

  • I don't have anything to say particularly about the vaccine today, but I didn't feel like starting a new thread for a similar topic.

    That new COVID variant is spreading crazy fast. I work at a relatively small company of maybe 150-200 employees. Each time someone has a reported case they will notify HR and they send out an email to everyone that someone was infected, what area that person works in, and when they were last at work. They never name names, but when there is only a hand full of people in each work area it can be pretty easy to figure out who it was. Luckily, I don't know of any coworkers that have been hospitalized.

    For quite a while now HR has sent out one of these emails about once or twice a week. Last week they announced 5 infections. Yesterday 10 infections. Whoa! Astonished
