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.

Is the work getting done? If so, what does ten minutes matter? Is it about productivity, or just about ensuring that work is sufficiently unpleasant to keep the peasants in their place?
What else is the overseer supposed to do to justify their position besides add stress and create reasons to not raise wages?
Its probably just what everyone's used to. I work in an ED. Fuck anyone who always turns up late. What does 10 minutes matter? It matters a lot actually. This is shift work. The work is never "done".
How does one work inside of an erectile dysfunction?
Ladies and gentlemen, please give a warm lemmy welcome to FRAYED PICKLES whistles, whoops, cheers, applause
What's ED in this context?
Emergency Department. Its a Level One Trauma center, so down time is not predictable.
Why not just say emergency room rather than an acronym nobody in the general population uses? There was a whole tv show about this for like 25 years.
Well no reason other than that's what it's called here. Most people where I live would know what I'm talking about. I can't be responsible for all people who don't understand me. Im going to use the language that is commonly used where I live aren't I? It's not a room it's a department.
Can't have these wagies too comfortable, the labour won't be alienated enough.
