BTW for all you unhopefuls that's illegal but that's the kinda **** that you're gonna be dealing with here.
They count on the stupid to respond before the law suit gets filed.
So just like the good professors in college used to say, "everything is political" it's now been updated to "everything's covid".
One more thing to add to your resumes...
Card carrying covid vaccine recipient.
If you're lucky during the interview they will give you a special emblem to put on your lanyard indicating that you have been vaxxed.
That's what they are doing for employees.
Good luck or should I say bad luck? If I were you I'd be hoping for the latter but that's like having a crystal ball.
I’m sorry, what do you expect?
Got a call that one of my FAs had Covid for a turn I did out of SEA. What do you expect the company to do? Do you think a fair response would be that they should reach out to the other working crew members and inform them? And once called, what should they do? Remove them from their trips? Or ask them if they are vaccinated? I told them I was vaxxed and they said no action required as long as I had no symptoms. It’s a crappy situation. Wouldn’t have to be this way if crews would just get the vaccine.
How nice of you to call me stupid for filling out my vaccine attestation. I know it’s popular for ex-VX on APC to hate all things Alaska, but so far they are simply trying to make the best of a crappy situation. Btw, I’m no lawyer, but a search online shows it is not illegal for a company to ask if you’ve taken the Covid vaccine (in a yes / no format). What lawsuit? I certainly hope none of my dues go to sue this. And if it ends up in a lawsuit, prepare to lose. Judges recently have sided on the side of protecting against Covid.
