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.

If they don't pay you as much as they could you shouldn't work as hard as you could.

Also, if I worked as hard as I could every day I'll probably burn out pretty quickly.

Yeah, obviously can't go 100% every day without burning out, but if 75% is the ideal sustainable rate, most of us should work at 50% if management won't reward us appropriately.
