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.

Yeah, same guy who fired nearly everyone at the Chipotle corporate office in Denver so he didn't have to commute.
That's.....man I hope you're wrong as that's awful.
Of course that wasn't the official reason he gave. He hired a management consultant group to do a study of where all the top restaurant talent was in the country. Surprise, surprise, all the criteria they were given led them to narrow down the ideal location for the corporate headquarters to be right next to his house in Newport Beach.
How the fuck isn’t this stuff against business laws. How does this not break the fiduciary duty by self-dealing?
If what you’re saying is accurate then he’s a pro at creating parallel evidence.
Who am I kidding? Anyone who could bring a suit against the CEO probably doesn’t care.

I'm theory, the board of directors is supposed to keep a CEO in check if they do something that is against the best interest of the shareholders. But the share price actually went up after he made this move.
Same reason share prices often go up when a company announces layoffs. The market isn't always tied to how well a business is run.
