Work Reform
10096 readers
2351 users here now
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.

That email is company wide, not specific to those fired
Yes, but you always BCC large groups like that to prevent reply-all disasters.
I was once on a massive reply-all chain. Most of the emails were "stop replying all!" But one made me chuckle. "I like these emails it makes me feel important."
My favorite was when someone from HR finally replied and asked everyone to stop replying to all or else. Then one guy replied “Ok” to all.
I was once in a reply all email chain where one person got so irrate at everyone else that a subreddit was created just to post memes about this person. I wish I could remember the sub name, but it was years ago and the sub probably isnt there anymore anyway.
Reminds me of /fucktsarevich, a sub only for hating a particularly arrogant and unpleasant character in Genshin Impact..
It's more the quest that's the problem than the NPC.
The NPC has a repeatable quest that has a random really low chance of being available on each IRL day. It will become unavailable again the next day regardless of if you do it or not and if you were successful or not.
The quest has three different paths. Doing each path successfully at least once gives you an achievement that's prob the hardest to get in the game, because of how low the chance of it spawning on a given day and you logging on to the game and checking if it is available that day are. And it has to be repeated at least three times (more if you fail the quest).
The rewards are negligible but completionists get understandably pissed off.
People logs in everyday, so sooner or later they'll get the achievement; personally I hate him for how easily he talks shit of others, even to their face.
100% - it's obviously a company run by slack jawed morons but the original comment had assumed it was only those affected getting the email, which is a different context
It's normally standard to send mass emails using BCC to avoid someone using the Reply All button to spam up people's inboxes.
Totally - just pointing out that implied in the first comment was those included in the email were the fired ones when that's not the case
Ah you're right, I missed the "impacted employees will receive" line. Tired skimming fails again.
Easy mistake to make - it wasn't exactly front and center
