Flubros and Flubras! Year 2 (a place for Flubros and Flubras)

It’s just the flu, bro.

https://www.nbcnews.com/business/economy/there-are-now-more-jobs-available-pandemic-so-why-aren-n1263669

The business article above concerns the large number of unfilled jobs in the economy right now as employers look to expand operations following the availability of the Coronavirus vaccine.

From the article: “I had one guy quit who said I can make more on unemployment. I’ll take the summer off,” said Robert Stevenson, CEO of Eastman Machine Company, a producer of machines that cut specialty fabrics for industry. “I told him I can’t guarantee you’ll have your job back. He said, ‘I’ll take my chances.’”

It weakens a nations’s character to provide incentives for people to stay at home be idle instead of working. The Coronavirus unemployment compensation needs to end.

If it takes vaccine availability to be the catalyst to boost the economy then that is great. Those scared of the Coronavirus can have the vaccine and those who aren’t can refuse it and then, in theory, everyone will be happy and we can move on as a nation.

Kozak has been doing his weekly disinfection of his Fauci Inflatable:

Hopefully he's wearing his masks and using plenty of lysol.

Unemployment doesn’t last forever. The guy who took the summer off was shortsighted. We used to call them slugs.

More and more, I hear waitstaff and clerks complain, righteously in my opinion, at first blush anyway, about how short staffed they are where they work and how lazy are their former fellow workers who are still out on unemployment because they are too “scared” to come back to work.

But then, I think to myself, maybe these employees are not scared of the virus but of the fiberglass-line disposable masks their bosses will make them wear, and I can’t get that mad at them.

I feel sorry for the class of workers who must be masked and am thankful I work from home.

Good point...I would quit my job too if they made me wear a mask all day.

“Those scared of the Coronavirus can have the vaccine and those who aren’t can refuse it.”

Ideally. Sadly, refusing the vaccine isn’t an option for many people if they want to work, depending on the level of communists running their respective work places. And it’s in the works that for travel, attending events, eating in restaurants, etc., participation will be allowed only for people proving they’ve taken it.

I try to be optimistic sometimes...there is no way Texas will make it mandatory. If some stupid businesses choose to enforce vaccines that is a possibility, but really my biggest concern is schools and churches as they always want to be seen as “protecting” people.

“there is no way Texas will make it mandatory.”

You’re right. Some states — the free ones — won’t make it mandatory. But we have Federal laws that supersede state laws ... I think. What would it take for the commie Congress with a demented commie president to make that national? That’s what scares me.

“my biggest concern is schools and churches as they always want to be seen as ‘protecting’ people.”

Schools especially, especially with their ultra liberal mindset in this day and age. Some churches will fold, too. I don’t think ours will, as personal soul liberty is a main tenet. Sadly, many/most of our denomination’s ministers now haven’t been deeply educated about the basic tenets and church polity, so there’s a good chance they will fold. The current SBC is a good example of creeping liberalism overshadowing fundamentals.
