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.

Work isn't the only thing going on in their lives. They aren't robots that you own.
As I have said, occasionally something happens. But I know too many people that are RARELY on time.
And I’m a worker. I don’t say I own anyone. Being late fucks with your fellow employees that have to pick up your slack.
Then don't pick up the slack. Tell your boss they need to hire enough people so the shop runs well even when people are late.
There wouldn’t be slack if people were reasonably on time. Easier just to get rid of people that refuse to be on time.
