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.

Try working at a company that has staff on the opposite side of the planet. I've missed meetings scheduled for 7am (I start at 8) that were sent in the middle of the night. That's what I call a dick move.
Been there (worked with offshore in India). No getting around it, scheduling meetings just fucking sucks when you've got a 12 hour offset.
Both are dick moves
I feel like meetings are an exception. And meetings scheduled at the literal start of business open is just plain stupid if it can be avoided.
