Masked by My Employer - Official Mandatory Mask Requirement
I feel so violated. I feel that I am being hushed, silenced, gagged, and disregarded. Who am I to have a voice? I feel that I do NOT matter. I feel hurt. I feel abused. I feel like I am being required to disappear. What's next, forced vaccinations? No, thank you!
Silence. Do NOT speak your truth.
I feel like I am being labeled a walking disease.
Does anyone else feel this way when you are wearing a mask?
I ask you how do you feel? How does it feel to be hushed and silenced?
Do as you are told! Do not take an action, do not speak!
This is what the mask is saying.
Hush, you must wear a mask to be here or you will be thrown out!
I am feeling like an outcast already.
I feel others might be thinking: "Oh, do not say hello to me as you walk by, I might get your disease!" As they walk on...avoiding eye contact like I have leprosy.
This is the attitude I feel from others when I walk by them wearing my mandatory mask, like I am a walking disease.
During COVID-19 since it first started in March 2020, I have been working the whole time. I have an essential job at a bank, a credit union to be specific. I have been happy in my job and content and I have been feeling lucky to be where I am. I thank God and I thank my guardian angels.
Today was the first day that I felt violated and labeled by my employer. I got an email that said it is mandatory to wear masks at our desks while we answer incoming calls within the call center. If we do not comply, we will be disciplined, written up and possibly terminated.
If you do not wear your mask, you will be terminated!!!!
A threat from my employer.
How do I feel? ......I feel so violated. I feel that I am being hushed, silenced, gagged, and disregarded. Who am I to have a voice? I feel that I do NOT matter. I feel hurt. I feel abused. I feel like I am being required to disappear. I feel that my employer wants me to go away, be seen but not heard.
What is going on?
There is only me, myself and I at my own personal desk.
There is something bad going on in this world. Politics has officially reached the working environment.
My heart sank into my stomach today as I read the mandatory mask email. Yes, I have been wearing a mask since March 2020. The only time I do not have to wear it is in my home, when I eat and when I am in my personal cubicle at work answering incoming calls. Now. OH, now that personal space has been taken away from me. It has been breached.
I can no longer talk with my headset free of a mask.
Today I wanted to quit my job. I almost walked out. I did not walk out. Instead, I went to my manager and I told her with almost tears in my eyes, no I did not cry. I told her with almost tears in my eyes how I feel violated. I told her that what the human resource department and our President is doing is a violation of rights. I told her that it felt targeted. I no longer feel that my employer has my back. I feel that this mandatory mask requirement at my personal desk is a direct violation of their mission statement: to serve the best interests of their Members, community, and employees.
This is unconstitutional! No employer, city, government, or private entity should have a say in silencing my voice, requiring me to wear a mask and treating everyone like a walking disease.
I am offended, I am disgusted with the political BS going on in this world. It is a power struggle that is going on currently and I do not want to be a part of it! Even though, I am afraid we are going to be in civil war soon if something is not done. We all need to protect ourselves from the evil that is around. We all need to do our part to protect ourselves, our families, and our constitution from being demoralized and destroyed. I am personally feeling it and being affected.
I am angry and I am incredibly sad.
This just shows that manifesting our own ability to be self-sufficient and resilient in this world is so crucial for survival.
I take a deep breath, do some alternate nostril breathing, center myself into a yogi mindset and pray with the intention that evil cannot hurt me and that this too shall pass.
As I prepare to wear a mask at my desk at work by December 7th, I will be practicing meditation and a yoga mindset to cope through these difficult times
Thanks for reading.
In kindness and in peace,
Lily

Lili. I can feel the frustration in your voice. If I could see your eyes, I know I would see it. I see every day exactly what you are describing. 90% of America is Sheep, following the false teachings of the news media, lies of government and churchianity. I have been called every name out there, so I am impervious. I knew the entire thing was a scam before the first month ended. Because of Research that was begun back in 1986. And the sad thing about is that none of the naysayers can disprove ANYTHING that I or the thousands of others that believe as we do, have set forth. Take a look at the first paragraph in my Profile.
Yahweh God Bless you!!!
Just remember the rule is for everyone not you as an individual. Your employer is trying to protect you and is doing it from a duty of care, not as a punishment.
Plus it will hopefully only be for a few months until the vaccine roles out. I thought your comment on being forced to take the vaccine was interesting, as I would make it mandatory if I was the PM. If you get the vaccine then you won't have to wear the mask.
Try to look at it positively as people have died from Covid.
Hello GeoffreyC1,
That is correct; it is my employer’s intention, to protect all employees, of course this is what they say even if that is not what I believe masks do. It is unconstitutional to force anyone individual to wear them.
In my opinion, wearing masks do more psychological harm than good in protecting us physiologically. The Surgeon General has said by Twitter that masks are not effective in preventing COVID-19. Plus, they are meant for health care workers in their jobs.
Many people believe that if they take a vaccine, they will not have to wear a mask, this is not true. Masks will still be mandatory.
I was tested for COVID, I do not have it and I am still required to wear a mask.
You are a very scary man to say you would make vaccines mandatory.
There are very few companies out there in this world who make vaccines safe as they are filled with dangerous solvents and chemicals that can kill. Now, the Russians have a vaccine that is safe, and they want to help their people be well unlike big pharma here in America. I believe you need to educate yourself a bit more on vaccines, how they are made and who makes them.
The virus is real. I never said it was not real. I know friends that have family and friends that have died from it. This is not to be taken lightly. I have spoken to a few people at my job, not a lot, but a few who have been ill from this virus or have had family pass away from it.
We are not going to agree on a lot of points here. I wish you a good day. Thanks for posting your comments.
I don't need to educate myself on our vaccine as the independent professional medical bodies have approved it, so I have no need to worry.
And not a thought for the many thousands of people who have list their lives to this serious pandemic.
Hope your mask protects you and others it else leave your job

Hello Wellbing38,
You do not have to be rude here. Yes, the virus is real. I never said it was not real. I know friends that have family and friends that have died from it. This is not to be taken lightly. This virus is profoundly serious.
I object to wearing a mask for 10 hours a day 5 days a week. As that is how long my days are until I can get home. This is why I am so upset. By the way, I would never leave my job because of this mandatory requirement. That would be petty, very petty.
No, masks will not protect anyone, it is BS. They may keep our faces warm on a cold brisk day, but no, they do not prevent anyone from being sickened by any kind of virus. That is our immune system’s job, and our job is to help our immune system by allowing it to function at top performance. Wearing masks will weaken our immunity and prevent proper airflow and health. Plus, they are meant for health care workers in their jobs.
Thanks for your comments. Have a good day.
