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.

It's almost surprising the number isn't higher.
Half of the ones that aren't burnt out are unemployed.
Incorrect. I was unemployed for a time and very burnt out. The churn still grinds you up and spits you out, shit paycheck or none.
Now I'm underemployed and still burned out. But at least it will take longer to go bankrupt.
Unemployed and paid for by their parents, that have money for now. The members of the ever shrinking middle class. A lot of Gen Z is also still young enough to be pretty reliant on their parents (myself included), especially because of how shit the working conditions are. Being unemployed is still terrible. Hope you get some less shitty employment.
some dont answer the burnt out question with yes, cause it can be a tracked company questionnaire.i wouldnt do it either.
