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.

I used to have the title "system administrator" in my resume. I guess recruiters were just going off of single keyword searches because I'd get all kinds of emails about unrelated administrative positions like "social security administrator."
My favorite example was when I got invited to apply for the position of "ocean administrator." I looked it up at the time and it seemed to be about directing shipping traffic, but it's more fun to imagine that I would have been in some way directing the ocean itself.
The job in reality.
