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.

My job doesn't like to give titles so no one can determine their value, but I'm something like a supervisor/manager/QC in a factory that makes luxury products for the ultra wealthy and the military.
What kind of luxury products does the military buy?
It's a separate part of the company. The parts are similar but not made to be luxurious and some are just completely different things that aren't luxury at all. I wrote the initial comment without the military part added, but I edited it to add that so I guess it kinda reads a little odd now.
I don't think there are many companies at all that do what we do so I'm being kinda vague lol
Too late for you to back out now. You are now and forever known as that one guy that makes luxury military equipment.
