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.

Or... Here's a thought. Kids DO want to work, they just want their time valued; to be respected and have a liveable wage.

Friends would get mad at me for how much I'd lie in interviews. Now, they see why I did. Interview questions like "why u wanna work here" or "where u see yourself in the next x years" dumbass shut up it's a warehouse you pay me to pick things up and put them down. Now I work in places that pay more because I specialized in some areas but the idea is the same. Interviewers don't even care if you do your job, they just care that everything is running smooth and their boss is happy by whatever metric they use to judge "smooth". Learning that distinction saved me a lot of headache.
