I suspect there isn’t a single state in the U.S. where a non-compete agreement would be enforceable in a case where the employee is not being compensated.

I don’t think this is legal, but there may not be may lawyers willing to work Pro Bono on a complex case like this.

Maybe. More likely someone will take her case for a percentage of any settlement. That said, 'justice' is not something you can depend on. It's more likely to get a settlement from spilling hot coffee on yourself than something like this - though this is a 1000 x more deserving.

Maybe her best bet is to fly United as a paying customer and then have a “slip and fall” incident at the ticket counter that will have every ambulance-chasing lawyer ringing her phone off the hook.

Exactly! Or if she said that it wasn’t just the vaccination, but that she had been discriminated against as a pilot because she was a woman (e.g. “I was always hearing under the breath comments about being unqualified, and that women belonged in the galley - not the cockpit”).

I don’t get how this isn’t extortion. Those assets aren’t even the airlines.

Sue for extortion. It is the dictionary definition.

The plan administrator maybe the one preventing a loan or withdraw. They maybe doing this to protect their financial interests.

The “vaccinated” are the ones spreading it. Do your homework before you make such stupid comments.

“There may be a “non-compete” clause in her contract.”

What would they do? Fire her?

The ‘doctors running the trials’, the trials PAID FOR BY MODERNA?

No conflict of interest there, at all, especially when Moderna has sold HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of shots, worldwide, under EMERGENCY protocols, not FULLY tested, with NO LEGAL LIABILITY! No conflict there, whatsoever!

Why are all the Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons so silent on the issue? Why do they cull doctors who prescribe Ivermectin and HCQ? Drugs that ACTUAL WORK?

BIG PHARMA!

Who provides money for doctors to research diseases and new treatments?

BIG PHARMA!

What happens if doctors publicly talk about curatives, like Ivermectin and HCQ, rather than talking up the new ‘injections’? NO MONEY FOR YOU! Who cuts off the money?

BIG PHARMA!

What happens when doctors openly discuss all the bad things that can occur with these shots? They get censured and lose their licenses, via the Colleges of Physicians and Surgeons. Why? NO MORE MONEY for research from...

...BIG PHARMA!

But hey, keep your head buried in the sand! Probably hard to breathe that way, but it must be better than getting the ‘omicron’ cold for a few days. BIG PHARMA, like BIG GUBMINT, is your friend, right?

You are wrong. What are your credentials or did you stay at a Holiday Inn?

Seems any company, I guess, can do the same. Make some unreasonable demand on the workers - maybe something like telling them they need to get down to the proper weight for their age and height, and when they don’t, don’t fire them, just put them on leave, forever. That way you don’t have to pay unemployment or anything else.

Every United pilot should be supporting this woman.

Every United pilot should strike today...bring United to its knees.

“I’m in the Moderna phase 3 trial. I get information from the doctors running the trial.”

Maybe, maybe not.

mRNA vaccines can't write to DNA. They can only instruct ribosomes to manufacture proteins.

Spike proteins.

It might not stop transmission, but it does decrease it and decrease the length of illness.

Take some more Hopium.

That's not a scientific claim.

It's a shibboleth promoted by failed English majors and Big Pharma vaxxpimps
