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.

MODERATORS
I think the point of the article is not that there was one word mistakenly written, but that an entire department lied for months and never bothered to test their system, and that they felt it was normal to do so. In other words, the problem here was the human factor. Typos are going to happen no matter what you do, and if you're not planning around them then you suck at your job.
Sure, thanks for highlighting that. I wasn't implying anything about the lesson we should take away, just that the article didn't seem particularly information dense, it was mostly recapping a reddit comment.
That ain't even a typo, just a variation...
But your point is very valid, HR clowns confirming bias here
