Best thing I ever did.
I was very lucky. I live in Florida, and since I work for the State, my job could not get too pushy. Though they did try through another route, but I was lucky in that area too, because they had a extreme shortage of nurses back then, and even a greater shortage of specialty nurses, so they had to back off and tolerate my defiance.
I had several people I worked with that stood firm with me, though they took the vaccine, they supported my refusal, so they could not use the division card. The hospitals that tried to make demands backed down, when they were threatened with lawyers being called in.
So we were thought of more as a pain in the ass, and not for one second as heroes. But I can live with that.
For every one person that read this post. About 7.99 billion have not.
Yet I still post.
