I am the VP Ops of a consulting firm. A large customer just informed us that we need to comply with the mandate or lose our contract. We have 25 employees.
Tell them to F off. Can you financially do so?
Who do you value more. Money and bitme’s dictatorship, or your employees right to choose? That simple.
Our company is hiding behind the “It is still a federal mandate for government subcontractors so we must comply with the original order ...” interpretation. /lawyer speak for “we quit”
“Tell them to F off. Can you financially do so?”
Expect companies, even small ones like RainMan’s to fall in line directly, or indirectly with the unconstitutional mandate. It’s $$$. If the givernment unconstitutionally allowed companies to sell their employees like slaves, businesses would do it.
I’d bet some companies (via fat-boy DC trade associations) helped “write” the regulation. For example - cost of weekly testing = not mandated to be paid by the employer. Funny that employer misses that cost, not.
The irony of this givernment needs workers to pay taxes. The givernment is going to cause millions of workers to lose their jobs. This will have a negative effect on an economy that is struggling with inflation and shortages. Reduced receipts has no impact on what the givernment will print and spend, only making matters worse. The risk is that people will opt for the Venzuela solution.
If you only have 25 employees, you’re already in compliance.
Actually, any size business right now is complying with the court ruling halting the mandate.

Sue them for breach of contract and criminal damages for violations under US 18/242.
