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.

It's a term used to refer to older millennials. I am 42 and apparently a "geriatric millennial." I hate the term, for what it's worth.
Pregnancies over age 35 are considered geriatric as well. So maybe they are just confused because of that..? (I’m being generous)
Is she saying stupid shit like the to get attention?
maybe, but the article really doesn't justify the headline imo. The article reads more like her statements are coming from a "this worked for me, so try my way if you're struggling" place rather than a "work for me for free, bitches" place.
not saying that in itself is good, but, you know, also way less infuriating than condemning those entitled youngsters
That's great if you live at home with plenty of family money to sustain all.

Experience is priceless, but this is just justifying exploitation.
Chief Marketing Officer ? That should not be a thing.
That is just a fancy word for VP of marketing which also means "not in charge of reality based stuff"
What is with these Coconuts telling other people to be slaves.
Im sure not so long ago some of these same people came from struggling families barely making it living food to mouth.
It has to be the "Fuck you Got Mine" mentality that they got going on.
This is slavery
Chief Muppet officer?
I'd expect better from a Chief Muppet Officer.
Fuck off and die.
Take your crab mentality and fuck right off, Kinjil.
That's very easy to say if it wouldn't gas meant for most people these days that they be in even more debt if they did so. That is just not the risk people from non rich families can take.
