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.

Middle manager here: they want you to quit, and me to do your job plus the jobs of the other 3 who just left after you're gone.
What do middle managers do in WFH jobs? Most companies I've worked in have as many "managers" as bottom level employees. It's hilarious
They pretend there are problems that everyone else is too inept to solve.
I'm a middle manager. I run reports to make sure my team is doing what they're supposed to do and identify things they need to be coached on if they're falling short. I also attend meetings with other teams to figure out solutions to things my team collaborates with them on.
In the best case, mentoring.
In the worst case, produce carbon dioxide, which the plants would need if they weren't plastic and only in the central office thousands of miles away.
Isn’t that because “manager” means you’re exempt from overtime?
