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
UPS said the layoffs were part of a broader effort to cut costs and reshape the company to better adapt to shifting market dynamics, as executives face pressure to stem a long-term decline in the share price, which has fallen by more than 20 percent this year.
UPS shares rose following Tuesday’s release, and were up over 7 percent at the time of writing.
No directive for profits or long term competitiveness, just share price. The whole system is just a big casino following social trends rather than any core fundamental goal to drive society towards better and less expensive services.
Fucking ghoul stockholders.
The Atlanta-based company said the reductions comprised 14,000 roles primarily in management, alongside around 34,000 cuts within its “operational workforce”—employees involved in its day-to-day logistics and delivery services.
I would be curious to know what percentage of the 34,000 chose not to join the union
Say it with me everyone:
Not a recession!
If you say it over and over, it must be true!
Yes, the economy is clearly doing well, thank you Orange Man.
