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.

True. Outside of brief hardware / furniture accommodations that were offered at the start of the pan, my previous company made out like bandits. They tried a six week "experiment" of having us come to the office twice a week in 2021. At the end, they looked at the numbers, made wfh the primary mode, and moved to a smaller office.
For context, the CEO / owner had been floating the possibility of taking over the office space across from us, doubling our footprint, in early 2020.
They’ve saved a lot of money on floor space. A LOT of money.
