I retired from Pfizer who bought Wyeth, my long term employer, who bought out Lederle Labs my initial employer.
I will not take a Pfizer vaccine. Period.
True story. First day of management meetings in Manhattan, NY in 2010, first person I meet asks me, "What branch of the military were you in?"
I said I didn't serve.
Second person asks me a few minutes later, "Were you Army or Marine?"
I said sorry I didn't serve.
On and on it went.
Pfizer hired military as higher ups because I was told they are easier to command.
I was a rebel as an outsider brought in.
Repeatedly told to sit down and stay quiet.
But somethings need saying when the higher higher ups ask us about it, true?
I learned at Pfizer. No. The question is not meant to answer.
That's weird.
The company is aligned tightly in Manhattan with all things progressive and has 0 tolerance for otherwise.
I took the golden parachute, stock options, 401K, and jumped from that plane.
Bad pilots and co-pilots galore.
