Vz has backed down from mandate as of now
Mandate on hold
Has there ever been a mass exodus like this before?
Every time someone leaves, I think that is it - that for a while no one else will leave, however, very soon after that, someone else resigns. I wonder if there have ever been such difficult periods before when people left en masse and looked for... — read more

Has anyone put in for medical/religious exemption? Get a response? Also if you get the shot now that Verizon demands it do they become legally liable for any reaction up to and including death?

Unions couldn’t do anything about the vaccine.
Unions caved and now they’re forced to take the vaccine. The union seems to be doing a lot of that the past 10 years.
Booster requirements to remain "fully vaccinated" coming very soon.
