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.

I'll be happy to do a 4-day week, but don't you dare take away my fucking around and not doing anything at work time!
You think corporations in the US won't put a twist on it? I can see them making it a 4 10s week. They just hate people and want them to suffer as much as possible.
Pardon, I think that's pronounced "Increase value for shareholders."

It's funny and sad
I vastly prefer 4 10s over 5 8s. It's a whole damn day saved!
Yeah, I don't see 4 days work weeks to continually be "no fuck around time" I see it as maybe improved performance for a few months but eventually people go back to "Fuck around" or "coffee runs" or everything that is counted.
