Pure bloods... navigating new job opportunities?

I notice some job postings have "must be fully vaxxed" in their descriptions. Some postings don't say chit and tell you when you show up to an interview. My last interview the fukking receptionist told me I had to be vaxxed if I'm there longer than 10 minutes and asked if I comply with the policy. My current workplace requires anybody over a certain level to be vaxxed (but not the customer facing frontline employees LMAO). I'm a tradie and figured we would be sort of immune to this crap but no. What the fuk do you do here if you want to move up and out? I'm seeing wages all over ballooning and I kinda want out, seems options are limited. I feel like this chit will eventually fade away but just today a facility I've entered before no problem wanted to test me for the coof on the spot. They just fukking started this policy. This is clown world....

Anyway, I'm considering "religious exemption" once I get an offer. Wat do misc?

Greetings Johnez, last we spoke you were helping me with scouting job opportunities (bev warehouse, etc). I would say get the religious exemption once you got an offer, it worked for multiple of my relatives. 100% success rate so far

Sweet, thank you brotha. I'm a tech now working on machines, seeing wages explode for techs is nice.

Also, pls edit out the company name lol (I will in this reply). Misc detectives and chit heh...

Fake it. Are they truly cross-referencing the state's database?

Don't be bitch OP, tell them the truth. Tell them you're a true blood or whatever you call it.
When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home.

Are you a carpenter, any good with home remodels?

TONS of money to be made. You can start your own, or join a small business/crew doing them. My buddy is pulling in about 7k a week

I'm too paranoid about getting fired. I would do this being my current company hires people back all the time. The way I'm leaving tho is gonna burn bridges being I just got promoted and they've poured a bunch of resources into my training. I wouldn't even think of leaving but I'm looking at $20k difference right now...

I've worked with wood, but not in construction. Interesting option, but 7k sounds like top end stuff which requires experience I don't really have.

LMAO I'm not ideologically against the vax, just against mandates. "Pureblood" isn't in seriousness here, and I'd even consider taking it as it seems more mentally palatable to take a vaccine to get a job rather than be forced to vaccinate to keep your job. I've had serious discussions with my wife on that and would have been prepared to get fired over it. I'd still prefer not to vax.

Then don’t vax
And you could give your company the opportunity to match the other places pay.

Union job, so zero flexibility on pay but that's a good point. I might be able to use that to leverage more hours and a better schedule.

Makes me wonder if these fools will still have this requirement in a year or twos time? Especially when there are pills for treatment and the vax only lasts 4 weeks or whatever.

My county has half a million people and we're down to 45 cases a day. Chit's ridiculous. Might stick it out a bit longer and see if these damn vax requirements go away.

I work for a tradie company but not actually a tradie. Sometimes it's not the company themselves but it is the customers they work with that demand certain working conditions. for example one of our customers is responsible for like 2/3rds of our revenue, they wanted our workers to be vaxxed in order to work on the job site. not sure what happened to those that refused, maybe they got sent to a different job site.

The company I work for is based in America so they didn't want to make vaccines mandatory so they went the vax or test route. So our subsidiary based in Canada had to follow the same thing. But our major customers are Canadian companies so basically they are following govt guidelines which is basically get vaxxed or phuck off.


I'm thankful af I was able to avoid this clown world nonsense srs. not sure what I would do. I can only imagine it's worse up here and almost every job will require new employees to be fully vaxxed.

Yep, it's more than the individual company's policy, sometimes they're swayed by forces outside their control. Unfortunately the specific job I'm waiting on an offer from was in the spotlight during the height of COVID so they're probably happy as chit they can say get vaxxed or get fukt so they don't have to deal with lawsuits for unsafe work environment.
