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.

Almost like working remote makes sense if people can complete their whole job at home.
I'm doing one day a week in the office right now and I loathe that one day. Literally all of the servers and services I'm responsible for are hosted at Azure so it doesn't matter where I'm at.
That one day is literally to weed out employees and justify the companies expenditure on office space.
Yup, and anyone that complies but complains is automatically put under suspicion of "quiet quitting". It's all a huge fucking game, and you only learn the rules as you play and only if you pay close attention. Best to keep your head down and just comply quietly...until you can find something better before the next round of layoffs.
The joke is on them then, we "went back" to the office in 2021 and I've been doing this since.
Same. Ridiculous. I work on a computer, it doesn't really matter where I am as long as I'm at the computer. So why force me through an unpaid commute?
