    Leaving Your Job Due to Mandate

    heron replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Leaving Your Job Due to Mandate

    heron replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Leaving Your Job Due to Mandate

    heron replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Entitled much? No one owes you a job and if you can’t meet the requirements of the job, you can’t work there. And don’t plead the ADA - if an employer can’t make a reasonable accommodation,...

    Doctor refuses to treat the unvaccinated

    heron replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Not just ironic, I flat-out don’t believe it. Do you want another anecdote? Ongoing testing of staff and residents in my LTC showed we were Covid-free until October, 2020. One worker went out of...

    Leaving Your Job Due to Mandate

    heron replied to jive turkey's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Another one who doesn’t grasp the scientific process or the concept of risk reduction. A suggestion that appeared on my facebook page: let’s fire all the doctors, NPs, PAs and nurses and...

    Termination From Employer For Refusing EUV

    heron replied to RaineyRN7's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Thank you, Grumpy. JT was right to point out that I missed those two items … the problem with reading fast between other chores. What he did NOT do was to was to explain why diabetes and stroke...

    CRT Banned in Colorado School District after Fathers powerful speech

    heron replied to GordonGekko's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    This particular fever dream is right up there with Jewish space lasers and baby-eating lizard people. It will be used as an excuse to ban any honest attempt to talk about race in public schools. The...

    Steve Bannon, Rudy Giuliani, Mike Lindell and Mike Flynn pushed pro-Trump conspiracy theories at an event advertised as a celebration of an anti-China movement.

    This, too, is boilerplate troll speak.

    heron replied to nursel56's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    This is what white panic looks like, TMB. The recent census results have the right-wingnuts’ heads exploding. Caucasian people are now a minority in seven states. My guess is that some people are...

    At least 74 people test positive for Covid after Barack Obama's superspreader event

    heron replied to GordonGekko's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Got a ways to go to compete with Trump’s 600,000. And, once again, correlation is not causation - all the snark in the world isn’t going to change that. Nice try,

    heron replied to GordonGekko's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    News flash: correlation is not causation. I understand that partygoers had to present negative test results before entering the party. I think it was impolitic to throw such a bash - bad optics....

    Delta Variant as Contagious as Chicken Pox

    BUT you left out the other half the story: what percentage of those hospitalized with Covid are vaccinated. According to what I’ve read it’s 5% or less. Interesting that someone advocating for...
