Vaccine Conversation Today

DAN_M
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.

  • You missed the point, giving you the choice of putting it on for your safety is one thing, but giving you no choice or it will cost you is another.

    Seatbelts fall under the same category as tail lights. You do not have to have them on a car. They are there to assist in the safety of yourself and other drivers. Yet, if they don't work you get a ticket.

    You also gave up that "choice" when you obtained your driver's license. As part of the license agreement, you agree to safely operate the vehicle and adhere to all safety rules and requirements, which include the use of approved installed safety devices. You can even get a ticket for not having a child in the appropriate car seat in some states.

    Ralph Nader and the NTSB are responsible for seat belt related tickets. In most states, the "Seatbelt Laws" just state that all passengers must use the factory equipped safety devices when the vehicle is in motion. Nader pressured the NTSB to mandate that all automakers make seatbelts standard in all cars. If you are driving in a vehicle built before the 70's, it may not have been built with seatbelts. If pulled over, a cop could not give you a ticket for no seatbelt because the vehicle did not have them or he could and a judge would dismiss it.
