Rereading my posts just now using the word 'friend' may have been too strong. He and I have know each other for the short time I've worked at County and in January 2020 we were on shift together 3 days a week, 8 hours a day for 3 months. We got to know each other and realized we share similar views on politics, family, education, books, what California has become, etc. We are also about the same age. Don't think that I'm back tracking and downplaying this but he and I are 'work friends'. We have never socialized outside of work. We don't text each other or communicate at all outside of work. We have never met each others families.
He got the jab and I still work with him. He's permanent day shift and I'm permanent graveyard shift. For the past year we only see each other for a minute or two in the morning 3 days a week but we work in different facilities so we don't do a 'shift turnover' with one another. Don't think that I'm sitting in a room with the guy ignoring him. That's not the case at all.
