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.

When people strike, they do not unyieldingly demand 100% of what they asked for initially. It is a negotiation. They negotiate. While 50% is not ideal, it is progress and pretty decent concessions.

Less than 50%, 28% to be precise. That’s just the sick days, if we include all the other things they were asking for, they got less than 10% of what they asked for.
