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 mean they could, if they had their own app. It's like how something like Angie's list has its own rules to. It's a shit setup but it's not wrong.

Im suprised there isn't something like you see with all those booking apps. Like if run, say, a barber shop, apps that'll handle booking and payment are a dime a dozen (and obviously you set your own prices). The app gets a cut but it's priced for what it is: software providing a value, not like Uber/Lyft where the cut is "fuck you what are you going to do about it".
