Not that any of you keep track of what I say here, but as part of my contract with this current role I stipulated no masks and no vaccines. Now... the company where the contracting firm has me placed is fine with that. It's the contracting firm that wants all of us to be vaccinated as a selling point to clients.

When they told me about the new requirement I called my boss and told him about it, then said I'd be leaving within two weeks. He freaked out, told me not to leave, then called the contracting agency and reamed them a new asshole.

No vax for me.

Can you explain why you think this is helpful? Many states are right to work and just flat out don'tgive a shit. What do you think will happen that would be in OP's favor?

The company would be out of a worker. When this happens a couple of times they reconsider their decision and the world is a better place. It's either that or the company's woke ass goes broke, and the world is a better place.

I'm an at-will contractor so technically the staffing firm could fire me. That would piss of the client and they'd lose a lot of business. I took a slight risk by refusing but I'm already coordinating my next gig so it's not like getting canned would be that much of a hardship. It's a lot easier to stand on principle when you can afford some time out of work.

That's great, could you share some tips? When is the best time to spring the no mask no vaccines on them? As in what point do you bring it up. During the interview? Or after they send you the offer letter?

This is only the second contract I've worked since the Covid panic set in. Both times I stipulated in the very first conversation that if on-site was required I wouldn't be wearing a mask (and explained why), and that I wouldn't be getting the shot. There's always a point during the first discussion when they ask if you have questions or concerns. I mentioned it then.

In my case i er....

lets just say i both pull in a lot of work for my company and the ratings i get are... well the boss wouldnt get as high ratings lets put it that way.

they drop me and a couple of other people who have refused they drop their entire reason that people come to us and not the competition, beause their best trainers end up accepting the job offers theyve had elsewhere.

Sounds like you're in a pretty good position, too.
