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.

My company says we don't sell 30 million in flooring in next 6 months we might have to close our doors. But in the next two weeks they are flying all the branch managers to Chicago, putting in a fancy hotels and wine and dine them. They already did the same thing with the sales reps. I asked If they couldn't have these meetings on Zoom. My boss didn't like that.
Fucking new CEO one of those guys who last 5 companies he ran them into the ground. Already does weekly Zoom meetings I see no reason company that apparently running out of money had to close 20 branches suddenly as all the money to throw around wining and dining upper management.
Vulture Capitalism, the C level and board are somehow sucking all the money out of the company before they bounce.
I know I see writing on the wall.
