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.

Office Space knew this all the way back in 1999.

I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work

They knew this in the 70's along with ubi. Milton Friedman is an asshole.

My dream is a 4day/20hour week with 30 days paid leave and a monthly UBI along with free healthcare and free education and universities.

People would struggle so much less this way.

The craziest thing is that economically and resource wise, it's perfectly doable.

Wow 15 minutes of work for 40 hours of pay. That's truly inspiring and impressive. 😌👌
