All functioning adults need to do three things
1.) identify their boundaries
2.) communicate their boundaries
3.) defend their boundaries.
This is the same as saying
1.) identify your values
2.) communicate your values
3.) defend your values.
You figure out what you are about. You communicate that clearly to others. Then you say “No, thank you,” when crossed. Often “No, thank you,” is not rude and does not involve throwing chairs. It is often simply a calm sentence or two that is most effective.
Sometimes that causes the other person to back down. Sometimes it causes the other person to tell you to take a hike. Either is fine. Ideally, you guys can come to an agreement in which his preferences shift to make room for your values.
A person of values cannot be given a good enough reason to give in to his values. A person of preference is simply waiting for the right reason. Your behavior determines whether you are a person of preferences or a person of values. Your behavior determines whether a stated belief is a preference or a value. Stand up for yourself.
Put your boss in an uncomfortable position. Make him choose between standing up for you or losing you, but don’t let him dump on your values while keeping you. “Compromise” is not a word that should ever be considered around your values. Stand firm. That is where each of us need to be who wish to remain a Pureblood.

The health mandates are unsafe and they are ineffective. I have written about that topic in a bestselling book as well as a second critically acclaimed book. It is time to take that knowledge to the next step.
“The Converts” is a group for those who recognize the evil of the health mandates and who refuse to ever again bend the knee to such evil. If that describes you, tap here to learn more about how to join The Converts. It is a special community, unlike anything else you will find on the Internet — courageous, affirming, exclusive, high standards, not for the faint of heart. In it those who are Purebloods join forces with those who are Converts and have come to see the light.
The new normal will not be decided by the Faucis of the world, the new normal will be decided by small groups of truth tellers like The Converts vowing to each other to do better for themselves and for the world around them — and then doing exactly that. Tap here to learn more and to find out how to join The Converts. Registration closes this week.
I am a doc in private practice in Northern NJ. I was kicked off the staff of a local hospital for deferring the jab. I got on staff at another (catholic) hospital with an exemption. My practice ( 4 partners including me) has been affiliated with the old hospital for many years but I was kicked off the staff of that place and they are still on the staff. We have a group of other MDs in the community who have formed an informal call group of 10 doctors based in other practices that coordinate and share call to cover eachothers practices and this hospital over night and on weekends. I am unable to participate in this call group b/c I do not have privileges at this one local hospital anymore . So my partners have had to take up the slack and take my 3-4 weeks of call for me as the group at large was unwilling to absorb the responsibility and distribute it among the entire group. So now my 3 partners want me to REIMBURSE them 2000 for every week that I would have taken call.
My own medical partners are trying to extract money from me to pay for something that was done to me by the hospital. OF course there was no justification for any of these mandates.
I been in this practice for 23 years. I am a solid citizen and have built up a great deal of good will in this practice and community. I am very grateful to you and others for helping me find the courage to stand up to this madness. Not only the vax issue , but the useless fascistic masking requirements as well.
I feel very conflicted. These men I work with are not bad people. It is an inconvenience for them to have to take this call. BUT I am not unwilling or unable to take this call but I am being prevented from doing it b/c of this hospitals and the state of NJ ridiculous, pointless and illegal vax mandates for health care workers.
I am a vested partner in this practice and on one hand I could afford to pay these guys and make a deal and keep the peace. On the other hand I could refuse and threaten them with a federal lawsuit for trying to extort money from me. I was discriminated against based on a rational and prudent health decision and I am being retaliated against by my own partners. THis is a federal crime. I could resign from my position.
Im not really sure what to do? I feel like I want to stand on principle and leave. I can afford to. I would have to move away from NJ and find another job. My younger son is going to be a high school sophamore , my older son is started college out of state. My wife is a doc with a stable job and is basically suportive. I have no immediate family here. on some level I want to leave... leave NJ. This place has been so brutally toxic the last 2 years.
Thanks for reading. Thanks for helping me find the courage to take the effing mask off. I got kicked out of so many places, yelled at . I got banned from two airlines.
This whole thing is a mass totalitarian psychosis
