They are going to introduce the 2 people who are hired to replace us at tomorrow's team meeting. My manager asked my colleague if she is comfortable telling people at the meeting that she will be on unpaid leave. Hmm...................my colleague has to do the dirty work too? Wonder if she will quickly call me tomorrow before the meeting. The saga continues....................I am just being silly. I misunderstood what my colleague and manager were saying. My manager did not expect us to say we are going to be on a leave of absences as of Jan. 1. She was going to say it herself. She wanted to know if it's ok with us to mention it in this meeting. It was hard to log into the meeting and see the 2 new hires there. at the end of the meeting she mentioned us going on a leave (no mention of the reason or that it is unpaid) she thanked us so much for our contributions and even reminisced a bit. I also have to meet with the new employee and fill her in.......... A dear colleague of ours who happens to be an MD called the other lady. she was upset she was leaving.....................My colleague told me that when she found out the reason, it's like it was a 180 degrees turn. She went on about unvaxed people causing harm to others............ My colleague eventually managed to silence her. I don't remember what she said that the other colleague could not find an answer to. How about if this vaxxine is so good why are you scared of the unvaxxed? Logic should cause these idiots to shut up, but it won't because fear is stronger than logic and the powers that be know it. I am so shocked at how stupid people are. No wonder so many crooks take advantage of the masses. I know! An MD telling my colleague we are endangering them. That absolutely astounds me......never in history do people get a vaccine to protect other people??? They do it to protect them personally. I have seen lots of people bring up the polio vaccine.....but they forget a few things....one that the polio vaccine was much safer once they started giving the inactivated virus and also there is no insect or animal vector which means utter eradication is possible. Complete eradication of influenza, rhinovirus and coronoviruses is impossible because they all have animal vectors which mean we can never eradicate them fully, which means everyone getting vaccinated would not stop the virus. But when physicians stop remembering what they should have learned in med school and instead just repeat what talking heads say on TV then we are in big trouble, and I am ashamed of them for their laziness and cowardice. Thank you for your response Churchgal. There is so much I can say in response to your post. Wouldn't know where to start. I am also shocked by the medical community's stupidity and cowardice. If most of them stop being such cowards, we wouldn't be in this mess. Our crime minster wouldn't be able to go on TV and come down harsh on those "spreading misinformation" if these cowards came out and told the public what they learned in med school and explained the science. Their cowardice is causing too much suffering and they have so much misery and blood on their hands. I have been trying to get a hold of a client and I couldn't for a few days. She called me today. A friend of hers who lived in Germany passed away. Her friend did not get the vax but her husband did. She got C19, ended up in the hospital on a ventilator. then I told her I am leaving work cause I did not get the vax, she said in a heated way: why are you not taking the vax? my unvaxed friend died. I should have told her to calm down and not talk to me like that. It's weird but I don't remember my response. Eventually, she calmed down and started saying that she did not want to get the vax but her husband made her and now he wants her to get the booster. She said they are talking about another lockdown to force people into getting their boosters and the government is lying. I told her I am happy to hear her talk like that but then remembered that I am using my cell phone and told her better not talk like that anymore.
