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.

Not to mention that even the companies are suffering from the system they themselves built. The gamified and enshittified hiring process doesn't improve the quality of the workers they get, it just filters the candidates based on a bunch of unrelated skills.
The talent pool has always skewed towards people who know how to play the game, rather than actual talent... but now "the game" they're playing isn't even about useful skillls like human charisma or networking, it's about handling or misleading poorly designed AI tools.
