What the Company did today does not infringe on anyone’s rights, take away their freedoms, or anything like that!!! They are a private sector business and have made a decision regarding their business. The courts have upheld that businesses can require vaccinations as a condition of employment.
All that happened today was the Company is making all of their employees accountable for their decisions. Both decisions have consequences. One is a positive consequence, and the other is negative. We all need to be accountable for our decisions as adults. Each person has the right to decline a vaccination, but there is a consequence for that decision.
At some point there will be a “Vaccination Passport” that foreign countries will require to step foot in their countries. If you’re not vaccinated, you are a liability to United because you cannot perform work that you were hired to perform. That’s a problem because they’re still paying for your benefits and they’re not getting anything in return.
It time for those people that choose not to get vaccinated accept the consequences for their actions. I’ve accepted the consequences for getting my vaccination. Time to grow up and be an adult!!!

I wonder how many of our currently unvaxed pilots will choose to get a vax card through other means? They don't have much to lose at this point.

Question: If Trump were the POTUS right now, do you think that United (or any other company's) management would have required everyone get vaccinated?

did you miss his taking credit for all operation warp speed and vaccine development, nearly dying, then being basically first in line for the vaccine?

It was actually the Fourth of July weekend that the mess all started. Bear week started on 7/10. For future reference, your photos have a date/time stamp typically.

Lol this argument is so stupid I don't even know where to begin. You may feel comfortable accepting the consequences personally, but many people aren't. It stops becoming a personal decision when your employer will fire you for deciding wrong.
That's like saying you have a choice to speak out against the government in China. You'll be jailed but decisions have consequences.
