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.

That's how I sounded like before I got married and became a father. Now I want to be CFO instead. Funny how that goes.
Bless capitalism
If you're implying you want to spend as much time away from your family as possible, you could just get a divorce. Wouldn't have to sell all your life to shareholders then.
So... You want to avoid your family?
You know, you could just talk with your wife and/or find something more worthwhile to do than putting in the maximum physically possible hours at work.
Or just get a divorce, because that's faster and cheaper than avoiding your family until your wife divorces you and your kids resent you, and has the same end result.
Man having a wife and kid made me want to be at home more, not less. I would leap at the opportunity to have 32 hour weeks and tons of vacation. I would even consider going into the office a second day of the week for that.
I worked 0 hours before having a reason to work. I barely need money. I make money for my family.
Now imagine being able to provide for your family without being away from your family for so long.
Ok, Boomer.
I always wonder why people like this are on here.
Do you require an echo chamber or do you want to actually bring change?
If you can't even convince me.
I worked a year 32h a week. I don't see the issue why you don't just do that. You get paid for those 32 hours ya know
I have no clue what you’re trying to say.
wife bad amirite
Sitting at home on my toilet married with a child. So I feel equally qualified to say this as you.
Fuck capitalism and that exploitation. What, you used to have empathy and care and now you're a selfish asshole? How is that good, it's definitely not funny, it's just sad.
Nice LARP, kid
