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.

One of the worst things about this is in my opinion that they call their boredom activities "work" and claim to work 16 hours each day while calling their employees lazy for not working round the clock and on weekends.

It's the kid in the group project that claims they did more work than everybody else and tells the teacher to give them bad grades.

It's the partner that says they do the majority of the chores.

It's literally the iamsosmart person, who's really just an actual idiot with low empathy, who grew up and never actually grew up.

“I have to sit through a three hour, one thousand dollar a plate lunch meeting three times a week with the dullest assholes imaginable, that’s work.”

It does sound like work though.

Bring on the global revolution: it can't happen soon enough.

Gonna be hard to pin down those "invisible" rich assholes

It's also amazing how many people are willing to die for the maintenance of the status quo that actively punishes them - some poor people will gladly defend the interest of the rich

That's the problem when you're born into the workforce and rarely ever find a minute to reflect about life and society. And if work should leave you some spare time, there is a partner and probably kids or pets or both. Anything to keep you away from pondering. That's how you breed obedient lil wage-slaves who don't even understand what they're protecting.

if don't work then:

  1. if ur rich, u don't need to
  2. if not, u rely on welfare programs

of those that are not rich, and not working, there are some that cant work, or cant find work, and don't want to work. the first two groups seem to get ignored and the last one gets all the negative publicity
