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.

couldn't amazon just tap into the audio feed then?
They're not actually monitoring that specific thing. They have a camera looking at the drivers and the recognition software happens to interpret singing as the driver being "distracted", but they don't actually want to modify the software so they are doubling down on what the software has decided.
Kinda the same way my car tells me I'm not looking at the road if I tilt my head 2 inches to the side or back. Its constantly giving me warning, and I'm constantly yelling that I am looking at the road! How else could I go around this turn!
At least I have the option of covering it with black electrical tape. Jeeze.
As someone who wears glasses I have to turn my head to check my mirrors. I would get so frustrated with that.
