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 was in a meeting yesterday afternoon that I could have summarized in two paragraphs.
In fact, I did summarize it in 2 paragraphs earlier that day. And sent it to everyone on the invite.
Imagine my surprise when all 12 people start panicking because they don't know the answer to something I put in the email. Turns out no one even read it.
That's why they like in-person meetings. So they don't have to read.
Yeah, that's the worst of it
How much time I spent writing eloborated mails, never got an answer, only to here in a meeting, the someone immediately demands answers and estimations from me - which I sent out to all members of this fucking meeting 2 weeks ago
