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.

I hate paid time off. It’s one of the greatest crimes of modern life. I think I’ll campaign to have my union dismantled and my pay cut in half because the current model is clearly ripping off my employer.

Keep in mind that the guy complaining about PTO hasn’t worked a day in his life.

Also we should bring back prima nocta for the holy job creators, and really just bring back slavery. I mean, people can't afford their own homes and such anyway, imagine how much more EFFECIENT it would be if we could cut through the red tape and get similar results.

Slavery never went away, it's just slightly more regulated now.

We still have traditional slavery in prisons.

Yup, 13 amendment clearly allows it.
