Isn't this willful destruction of company property? That's a crime, not just a fireable offense.

and then there are the health care workers who refuse to get vaccinated. Got a feeling we're not going to be in that good of shape by fall. Because of selfish and sometimes stupid assholes, this crisis will be with us a LONG time...

Opportunity to get a vaccine.
