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.

Who makes their bed, anyway? I cannot think of a reason to do so.

I rarely do, there's usually a cat or three on it

My mom just moved into an assisted-living facility and immediately had a fall trying to make her own bed. They of course make the beds for you there but only after breakfast and my mom's mind at 7:30 am couldn't handle the "mess" ... of one corner of the blanket being turned down. Meanwhile I just sleep on my mattress with a mexican blanket over me.

Yeah, like I need an entire robot for a chore I only do every six months.

Alright, maybe I could use one...

My aunt once told me "making your bed is like making yourself a present you can unwrap later".

Didn't inspire me at all

As someone who has perpetually battled the blankets never being correct - you're gonna end up doing it anyway. The only difference is that one way looks much nicer than the other, and has the added benefit of being a start-up ritual.
