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.

Minimal pay = minimal effort. I don't need a manager to coach me. What I need is more money so I feel valued instead of some disposable equipment. I need to not be actively screwed over by other coworkers. There's a lot that can be done to increase moral and more management is not it. Most people are happy with work if it's not a hostile environment because surprise, it feels good to have done a good job.
Exactly. A good manager is one who shields you from upper management bullshit and lets you do your thing, your way, so long as you contribute your part to the team.
