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.

The food quality is slightly down in my opinion but that’s because he went to a safer food model.
I have a friend who works at Starbucks who’s excited about the changes. He’s a manager in Las Vegas. If he does the same at Starbucks, he pushes for internal promotions. The goal was 95% of promotions were internal.
I don’t go to Starbucks often. The coffee is expensive. The stores are unwelcoming and I don’t like their coffee much.
I avoided chipotle after the food safety issues but tried it after he said he fixed it. I go 1-2 a month now
