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.

OK. So how does that help with you knowing OP didn't write it like that on purpose?
See all those upvotes OP is getting? It means people understood why he wrote "devastated" because they read the entire comment. I think your heart was in the right place, but in the end your concern was completely unwarranted. It's a shame you got downvoted just for caring about OP's wellbeing :(
I don't get why all these questions and challenges are necessary - it was just a minor editorial criticism and then a reply to somebody claiming to know what the writer was thinking. Have it any way you guys want.
Because you keep making weird claims. I wanted it to make sense to me.
Learn to live with disappointment I guess.
