Re: Did you get the shot?
the road to hell is paved with good intentions
particularly in pursuit of utopian visions
no one does more damage to the world
than those who believe it's their job to save it

there is no nihilism is being a pilgrim, and I live a very Christian life, following the path of Christ himself
even as the messiah, He chose not to intervene, but rather let the Romans crucify him, that was the point

He didn't go about imposing an utopia with the power of the Almighty
He simply lived a good life, and spread the Good News

Re: Did you get the shot?
One has to wonder if MHF is only 25% vaxxed, what the real percentage of America is - granted we're prob not a good representation of "average Americans".
I know my wife's employer (Major Corp USA) is only about 35% and the higher ups are worried the front line grunts will quit if forced to get the jab, at the same time, they can't afford to pay for weekly testing for that many employees.
My brother employer (Mid size Corp USA) in the northeast is only 20% and management is in the same position - except that they make parts the DoD absolutely needs and prob cant get anywhere else easily.

Agree. That’s why I think we’re at the crest of this wave. The mandates are unenforceable, and will be replaced by another distraction shortly.Zlaxer wrote: ↑Sun Sep 19, 2021 9:58 amOne has to wonder if MHF is only 25% vaxxed, what the real percentage of America is - granted we're prob not a good representation of "average Americans".

Re: Did you get the shot?
I am not an employee, so I don't see it through the eyes of an employee
I am not Major Corp USA neither, so I don't see it that way neither
as a small businessman, I see it from my point of view
there is no escaping the government when you are a property owning businessman
if the law says my employees need to be vaccinated to get the job done, I have no choice but to comply
if somebody wants to quit over it, nothing I can do about that, moving on

Right - then 80% of your workforce (which is highly skilled) walks out.Smitty-48 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 19, 2021 10:08 amI am not an employee, so I don't see it through the eyes of an employee

I didn't say I represented them - quite the contrary. I said likely they will walk - even 40% would shut things down. We will see what happens...
