Work Reform
9798 readers

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.

I keep banging on about how hiring practices need to be reformed, and stopping this shit should be the first thing on the agenda
If we elect the right people we can make it the agenda. That's a big ask yes, but it's also why they don't want us to vote.
2 party sucks. But they are not the same. One offers some hope of change. Look at the recents changes to air travels the FTC did. https://www.transportation.gov/briefing-room/fact-sheet-biden-harris-administration-announces-rules-deliver-automatic-refunds-and
They are consumer protections.
Now imagine if we organized and voted in ppl like Bernie or AOC. We can achieve real change.
I'm sorry but voting 3rd party without the math making sense or ranked choice voting, is largely a waste of a vote
I don't remember can you tell me? I'm sorry I have a pre existing condition that fucks up my memory, only started getting insurance to cover the medicine some time after 2008.
What type of bridge you live under?
The billion class love your defeatist attitude BTW. Progress is never perfect, so why try right?
How much they paying you to discourage ppl from voting?
Also insert comic about if you don't like the serfdom/being a peasant/system why do you participate in it?.jpg
Hmmm if gov regulation mean corp can be mean to peasants, then we should change gov? Nah imma whine like a hopeless weirdo
Nah I'm not gonna waste my time getting citation for a troll arguing in bad faith. How about you give me a citation for your dumbshit claims?
Start by paying interviewees the wage of the job posted for their time interviewing and doing "tests"
These fuckers spend bajillions on HR software and HR execs, surely they can figure out how to hire quality candidates at a more efficient clip?
