My liberal workplace is finally going full commie. It was only a matter of time working for a company in the middle of a leftist hellscape, but I'm still shocked how quickly they rolled out these new commandments with no prior warning or employee feedback.
They've already made face coverings (masks/face shields) mandatory, and also just dropped a mandatory 1.5 hr "unconscious bias" training course on us as some stupid "CEO diversity and inclusion pledge" earlier this year to be completed by december. I was willing to postpone the course until after the election to see if they'd get spanked by Trump since we're technically a federal contractor (we do occasional work for the military) and he put out that new executive order against critical race theory. Who the fuck knows if he's all talk on this one or not.
To my joy, we all just got an email today about how now the flu vaccine is mandatory and we have to sign up for the at-work clinic by the end of this month. No further clarification outside of "THIS SIGN UP IS REQUIRED". Now I have to go have a useless conversation with HR that I already know the outcome of, and I suspect I'll have to contact an exemptions lawyer. I really like my job, but there's no fucking way they're injecting me with poison to keep it. If I can legally avoid it, I'd like to stay, but I'm more than willing to walk away on this one.

Why would you quit - no way. Make them fire you over the shot, then you can sue and draw unemployment. Also start being based at work and not "giving a fuck about feelings" if they fire you for that you can ^^sue and draw unemployment.

You can get EI after being fired in the states? Over here across the border, no effing way.

Getting fired or let go is the only way to get unemployment here.
You cant get it if you quit.

Can't get it if you quit here either. The only way is a 100% layoff. If you get fired, even if you've put in years, you lose all your benefits.

If you start wrongful termination paperwork you can get it through being fired. You dont even have to prove that its true

Well that does bring up an interesting story I omitted. I did get EI once for quitting but that's because I told the boss I was in a relationship with the night manager. She was there for years and had a lot of clout. We went out the night before to a concert, got drunk and had a big fight. I didn't show up for my shift and used that to see if I could get EI. I did. So, there's that I guess.
