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.

No employers will offer me a private office which is what I have at home.
I’ve invested in my home office and my monitor, mouse, keyboard, webcam are all way way better than the ones in office.
Why is this monitor not working? Why is this keyboard sticky? Why is that guy so LOUD? I’m going home
Plot twist: you are home.
yeah i honestly think that's a big part of it -- now they can't goad people with bullshit perks like 'a slightly less shitty office' that enforce a hierarchy; lower level employees won't feel as bad when they're not being demeaned in various ways. and the #1 goal of a business other than making more money forever is to allow the sycophants and psychopaths it employs to feel power and control
Same here. The equipment they use in my office is the cheapest they can possibly find. 1080p monitors, plasticky garbage mice and keyboards.
