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.

Workers are tired of being used and abused, companies are offering a whole 2 weeks pto, thats a whopping 14 days out of 365, and yet they refuse to be whipping boys anymore. Heck some employers are even paying some of their health insurance, you read that right, some. Is the modern working class weak and dumb?? We think so. More on this ground breaking journalism tonight at 9 pm cst.
I've read dumber shit on the walls of a por-a-john at a Kanye west concert and thats saying something, you gotta try to be this stupid
Just a note: it should be 10 days out of about 254. Unless you’re one of the sorry souls that works every single day, in which case you have my condolences…
Edit: 10 not 14.
Ten days out of 254, since I sincerely doubt they are paying for weekends
Good catch!
