That explains a lot.

There seems to be a tendency by some to disparage the service of those who were drafted and those who never served in combat. The fact is only 10 to 20% of military ever sees combat. But, without those support troops, the combat troops would never get paid, never get fed, not get mail from loved ones, and most serious of all not get medical aid.

Great respect for those who serve in combat, but let’s not forget those who support them.

My Wife works from home on a Federal Contract servicing Active Duty Service Members and Veterans Medical Insurance and Claims. She has been notified that, even though she works from Home by Telephone and Computer, if she is not Vaccinated by December 8th (understand this has been delayed to January 4th, 2022), she will lose her job.

Do you support this, mostpost???

Of course, fear-controlled freaks support it. The protected are scared stiffless of the unprotected. And their mind is so frozen with fear and panic, they cannot give a rational reason why they feel the way they do.

Very probably. She isn't overly concerned about it. She likes working from Home but is perfectly willing to go back the Workplace.

Dave Schwartz...I don't know. I do know she isn't fearful of the Vaccine. Autonomy over their bodies has suddenly come front and center in this Country (this is her problem with everything). Whatever she chooses is fine with me...and our Son and Daughter (they are both Vaccinated).

davew...it's like it doesn't even resonate with them. The Roe v Wade is going to be revisited in this Country...just a matter of when. And, of course, Autonomy over one's body will be supported fiercely by Liberals...like this COVID thingy never happened.

Strange that all the Postal employees and ALL the members of Congress and their staffs don’t have to get the vax though.

I wonder if bring terminated and then the resulting lawsuit payoff would be enough to retire on? It seems the DOJ is willing to settle for big bucks for some things.
