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.

People who like coffee flavoured things but not coffee.

But why go to a massive international corporation for that? Local independent cafes exist and many of them do much better coffee cakes.

Convenience. I make my coffee at home, but I pass dozens of Dunkins, Starbucks, gas stations, etc. on my way to work. Can't say I'd be able to locate a local café in my area.
