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.

I get some of the issues (not talking about pharmacies here) because if you hire remotely you get swamped with resumes, if you don't you only get the nearest people, not the best people.
Everyone loves to shit on HR in comment threads but if they have a series of processes that are well thought out they can be a benefit to employer and employee.
i don't work in HR lol but you can say that about any job except doctors nurses and fire fighters
That's what being an employee is: receiving money to be of some use to the employer.
Sure, but I've yet to see a profession as reviled as HR. That would include drug dealing. Maybe dentists? That's all I can think of, top of my mind anyways.
Literally their entire profession consists of being a professional snitch and a gatekeeper.
