Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Wow, 1.9 Trillion dollars sounds like a lot... until you consider that the top 15 wealthiest INDIVIDUALS in the United States are hoarding more than that.
Guess who's making them all that money? These “quiet quitting”, “coffee badging” employees.
Rather than framing it as “lost productivity”, why not frame it as “stolen wages” or “wealth drain” instead?
Why not? Because they think it makes these corporate fuckers more money even though they would probably make a lot more if they actually took care of their people.
If they want their precious $1.9 trillion they can start by giving me a more engaging job to do.
