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.

Please tell me this is fake. Please?!?!!??
True story: I once worked for a startup where the head of HR kept a spreadsheet he called his "naughty and nice" list. For every employee he had a score that boiled down to "risk to the company". He would send out surveys like this and say things like "your feedback is strictly confidential", then use the responses to determine people's scores. Of course other things like any kind of complaint he overheard went into it too.
It was a marketing stunt: https://www.afaqs.com/news/social-media/yes-madams-termination-email-unveiled-as-campaign-to-address-workplace-stress-8416050
It's a disgusting and utterly tone deaf marketing stunt then
