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.

"Why won't people keep working like dogs? It must be because they're lazy."
Better optics than layoffs, and no severance is due. Seems like a great win for corporate.
Title is a question? That means the answer is No.
I believe specifically it’s whether it ends with a question mark. Does this title count?

I don't think the law is very strict. Sometimes the answer is yes.
when was 1.0?
After COVID.
Office work is unfulfilling and mentally exhausting. If they paid me even close to what I make in a corporation at a tire shop Id rather work at a tire shop.
My workplace is closing jn January and I don't plan on looking for another job for some time
Going to travel?
I'm a bit of a homebody so absolutely yes, I need to get out there while I still can
And tech is planning to mass layoff the other 7... uh oh!!!
*NOBODY WANTS TO WORK ANYMORE!!!!* /s
I just quit my job on Wednesday, felt great!
I think there’s was a bit more affordability and therefore flexibility right after Covid. For a brief moment there. We had some savings and still lower borrowing payments. Now I’m not sure we can afford to revolt. Or I can’t anyway.
