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.

The Pitt had an episode(s?) about that. A guy was frustrated about having to wait so he sucker punch some poor nurse on a smoke break.
That was included in the show, as so many other things are to get people talking about it, but a punch isn't a particularly out of the ordinary bad day according to all of the nurses I know. Even those that work in private practices have had to deal with violence fairly regularly from patients and/or family members.
