Can’t wait for some idiot judge to try to order people back to work AFTER they were fired.

18 months ago, these nurses were heroes. Dancing and twerking in viral videos.
Notice that no one had any problems with them not being vaccinated, until now.
Sorry, no sympathy here. They got used and spat out by the Left because they no longer fit their narrative anymore.

They will come around in four weeks, and try to contact the fired nurses. If I were them, I’d ask for four-thousand dollar signing bonus, and a guaranteed contract with no Covid firings possible.

Gee, the headline is actually accurate.

This is a shortage, NOT a scarcity.

Gee, didn’t see that coming.

I’m an RN in Florida. No way I’m getting these shots. They’ll have to fire me.

There are 100,000 nurses in Philippines who would be thrilled to work in Houston hospitals.

So I heard that in Washington State, King Inslee has decreed that health care workers fired for not getting the jab are not eligible for unemployment benefits. Talk about putting the squeeze on.

Mrs. Copaliscrossing works at a nursing home and she said the part that isn't getting talked about are all the "non-medical" support staff like cooks, janitors, security, etc at these medical facilities also being required to get the jab. They simply just say "peace out" and go get the same kind of job at a non-medical facility. Now what? What a cluster@#%^&*^%@

Bridges was one of more than 150 hospital workers fired by Houston Methodist hospital.

“All last year, through the COVID pandemic, we came to work and did our jobs,” said Kara Shepherd, a labor and delivery nurse who joined Bridges and other workers in an unsuccessful lawsuit. “We did what we were asked. This year, we’re basically told we’re disposable.”

Well, Delivery Room nurses should be easy to come by. No wait. Micromanaging short-sighted hospital administrators are easy to come by. Skilled nurses, no. Not easy to come by.

Well, they did punish those unvaccinated employees, which was their #1 priority. So, they achieved their #1 priority.

The MILITARY is next!
Members of the U.S. military will be required to get the COVID-19 vaccine beginning next month under a plan laid out by the Pentagon Monday and endorsed by resident Joe AfBidenstan.

I wonder if Southern District of Texas federal “judge” Lynn Hughes can wish a bunch of nurses into existence...

Looks like they should have FIRED MANAGEMENT instead

When people stick together, they find they are the ones with the power. That is why all the divide an concur strategy.

We must destroy woke companies no matter what they are. I am ok with hospitals also going under if they need to.

This is what is known as a self inflicted problem.

No Sympathy.

Were ICUs reduced in size because of this reduction?
