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.

Maybe try a new non work hobby in this downtime. You don't have to be a more productive or engaged employee to find joy and excitement in life! Why can't work be that consistent but dull backdrop that empowers/enables your the rest of your time?
Maybe a mindset shift will help. You don't have to keep climbing that corporate ladder. Stop and smell the roses! Idk about you, but most above me on that ladder at my company seem pretty overworked and tired
I love being on or near the bottom of the corporate ladder. I'm not interested in extra responsibility. I just want to clock in and clock out and not think about work when I'm not there. I have too many other things I want to do with my time.
