High time to resurrect the "Just Say NO To Drugs!" campaign. It is not just about recreational pharmaceuticals anymore.

Your mention of the the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation: I wonder if anyone has ever interviewed Malinda Gates and asked her how she feels to be listed for all time as one of the greatest mass murderers of humanity in all of history through her foundation?

I ended up having to get it in order to keep a job that has been increasingly patronizing and growing more and more shit as time goes on.

I've stopped working as a pharmacy tech and even though I hold a license, I'll never go back to working in that field again.

Understand, I've always stood by "You do you." Nothing less. I don't want anyone who thinks that maybe it will have any type of adverse affects on them to ever take it. I mean if there's the least little shred of doubt, just don't do it. Those that want it, fine, I don't think one way or the other of them.

Those who've lectured the rest of us, wished us dead, etc, that I have absolutely no tolerance for in the least. Those who insisted that my job be threatened, you got your two into me, no boosters, you're happy. I'll be getting nothing more, especially after how completely shit I felt after the two. Nevermind that I am allergic to them and that second one damn near sent me to the hospital because my heart rate was going crazy but it won't ever happen again.

Those that did mandate it, I've never harbored more anger than I ever have than towards those people. I'm not talking at the street level, though they get some of my ire too. I'm talking those who made the decisions and those who thought it was a great idea and pushed it as though we were being done a favor. My only real regret is that I wasn't born with but two middle fingers, so they're all going to have to share.

If any of them think I'll go along to get along quietly this time, they're sadly mistaken. If I do go along with anything, I will be such a malicious asshole about it, that every single one of them will be working like mad to get me to go along with the merest modicum of it. Straight up fact.

As for the medical community. I have zero trust. My time working in a pharmacy put that on shaky ground already. In my immediate area, there are far too many "pill mill" doctors for me to trust and I went to the ones I thought I could (about three of them) trying to get a medical exemption due to my allergy, I was denied and still charged $160 per consultation. Now, what was once was shaky is now destroyed and that level of trust can not be rebuilt.
