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 feel the exact same way after working from home for the last five years. The disconnection and pointlessness along with the reduced physical activity and terrible company corporate culture have actually resulted in me seeking out a job in an office again.
I think it may be better for mental health and physical health, depending on the company and their culture.
Thanks man. I got some hate for my comment suggesting a mix might be beneficial and I hobestly don’t get it.
I have much the same experience as you with disconnection and meaningfulness.
I think a lot of the negative energy comes from folks that lack experience, and maybe are stuck in an office wanting to work from home. It definitely has its upsides, but it isn't all sunshine and rainbows!
