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.

Put in about 40 apps on indeed. Got one interview, didn't get job. Couple weeks later got an email from one employer that I wasn't what the were looking for. I responded, thanking them for at least responding. Got the interview. I hit 5 years in the job next week.
I do that but half of the time when I get a response like that it's from some automated email that says no one will read any replies to it.
Five years ago, people treated other people like people. Happy for you though!
Thanks!
