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.

What the fuck is engaged supposed to even mean? I feel like i should be angry
It's a somewhat new concept that sort of combined happiness and work effort. Active engagement goes above and beyond, engaged employees are generally positive, disengaged employees are slightly negative, and actively disengaged employees are like cancer.
It's a nebulous concept that boils down to good employees are good, but gets management consultants paid.
Thank you for explaining.
