No one will be… because we are all resigning after Dec 15 and they won’t need to do cuts.
Don’t believe me?…. Hold my beer.

Personally I like to take a humor break from all this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6plsSlxOstQ

Of course we must consider there is no current requirement per OSHA. https://www.osha.gov/coronavirus/ets2

These will not be layoffs. These will be people willingly making a conscious decision to move forward with their careers elsewhere. It's not a layoff if you fail to maintain the required standards of employment.

How many will take this opportunity to be free spirits and seek gainful employment elsewhere? Who knows. But they won't be missed. And more and more, Biden or no Biden, their opportunities will be narrower and narrower. No tech organization wants unvaxxed people. Why would they?

Not nearly as high as some would want you to believe. Every anti vaxxer is loud AF online and makes it look like there are plenty but there really aren't. It's the same people. So no, not many. Not enough to really make a dent in the next $1B next Quarter.

5 percent from non excemptions
5 percent from a new round of colocation

None. You will be placed on PIP or let go for other reasons. Do you really think they want another lawsuit on their hands for letting you go for the vaccine mandate? They may run the business like village id--ts, but they're smart in this area.

Arvind said that they’re going to approve basically every exemption request. As long as you didn’t put something like “Covid is fake” then you should be fine. So I don’t think it’s going to be that many. I think more people will have quit because they don’t want to deal with it.

No idea… but probably not enough to avoid the next layoffs scheduled for Q1 2022.

Brace for impact!
