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.

Coincidentally I created a ChatGPT account today for the purpose of saving time writing my cover letters. Do you mind sharing your wisdom with what works for you with your creation prompts?

"In a moment I am going to ask you to generate a cover letter for me. However before that I want you to ask me any further questions that you need answered to help improve the quality of the output. My name is (name here), my address is (address), the company's address is (company address), and the job title is (job title).

This is the job posting:
(Paste the entire job posting here)

I have that whole thing in notepad filled out, copy paste the entire job posting in, then copy paste that whole thing to chatgpt.

It'll then prompt you with a bunch of extra common questions you can answer to help flesh the cover letter out, you answer what you can, and it'll generate.

Make sure to do a final pass cause it'll hallucinate sometimes, and you can hit the regenerate button if needed if it hallucinated too bad.

Main hallucination to watch for is it just shoving extra facts in there that you didn't supply. "I have an engineering degree" or whatever when you never told you you did lol.

Oh, well sure, obviously not mechanical engineering, I'm a cocktail engineer! Wouldn't lie on an application, right?
