Work Reform

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.

Yeah whenever I go for an interview for a public position, I try to be mindful that the person or people I'm speaking to are probably exhausted. But unless you've got a reference to a private posting directly through a back channel, then I don't think there's any way around it - hiring for a role is hard. But ideally, you'll have the person for years if you can retain them, so doing it right is worthwhile.
