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.

Somewhat reductionist and more like a "understand your enemies" from the reactive point of view.
This piece's main purpose is to push the author's consultancy service on "helping tech and finance industry executives drive collaboration, innovation, and retention in hybrid work".
So although the phenomenon might be valid, it will be impossible for them to articulate the real reason behind the change: people are becoming aware that "returning to the office" is more about controlling the work force through power, rather than any bullshit business benefits.
