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.

These articles just stink corporate interests. "You'd have to pay 20% more than a competitor, if the difference is requiring not working from home." rings a lot different than "please master, don't make me go back, I'll work for 20% less and be happy, it's a win-win, right?"
Let's see how competitive the company is when you are off by at least 20% and the ones who work from home at the competing firms are more productive at it too.
These are total bullshit Corp articles. Another way to stifle pay. If your skillet is good for the job you should get paid that. The only benefit to working in the office is to get needlessly bagged at by walkby's. What's the point of walking to your home office, getting on a computer working, vs wasting unnecessary time in traffic creating pollution and walking to the office to get on a computer and work? It's stupid.
