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 deplorable! Did your contract have any early termination penalties?
No, not at all. I don't understand why we even have contracts written if anyone can breach it at will.
Well, fuck them. Your product team and stuff sounds decent though. When they failed to find a local and asks you to come back, remember to demand a 10% raise.
My product team understands the needs. My engineers relies on me to make decisions.
At the end of the day, it's all money. I'm here to make it. You're there to exploit me. We have a mutual understanding.
No we don't. I'm starting a private small business first chance I get. No one will get anything from me except exactly what they deserve
They won't get more than the bare minimum from me.
Did you talk to a lawyer about this? Why are you so sure they can breach it?
No, I didn't. I'm just going to learn from this. Never go out of my way for any corporate company.
