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.

The "unprofessional conduct" that he's alerting us to is his own behavior, right?
I read that and thought, "Whatever is coming is probably a huge breach of business etiquette." And I was right.
Edited to add: If the candidate's behavior in the interview was so egregious, why would you even waste your time with follow-up calls? It sounds like they wanted to hire the guy, but he wasn't interested in working for them after the interview. Sour grapes, anyone?
I would guess the "money-driven mindset" had a lot to do with it. The interview went well, he was a good fit, but they didn't offer him enough. With some back and forth on compensation souring communications enough to make the owner butt hurt enough to post this.
Exactly... Do these idiots not realize how easily readable they are? I've never subjected myself to LinkedIn, so I couldn't say, but do people actually respond positively to posts like this there?
