We did it, Patrick! We solved workplace stress!
No one tell them about poor or mentally ill people 😭
This has got to be from The Onion... Right?
So fucked up
Wow, that's not bullshit in the slightest. Is it legal to do this there? I mean it's technically illegal here in America but employers can always come up with a bullshit excuse. Worse, if you live in San "at will" state, they can fire you with NO reason.
I don't know much about Indian laws and work culture, but many Indians I spoke to mentioned the work culture in their country is highly toxic. They prefer to work in American and Western companies instead of Indian-grown ones.
Watching Mike Okay videos, even things that aren't legal seem to be commonplace. The video where he visited a small jeans factory in a crawlspace above another shop that had ladder access, and where the off-dity employees slept on the floor underneath the workbenches where other workers were working, a small room with ceilings so low he had to stoop, that gave me the heebie jeebies
This is wow, I mean we are used to a lot, but wow.
They also write "100% Purely Bhartiya Brand" on their (really terrible) page. I am not indian, so I might be wrong, but this raises some questionmarks.
If anyone has questions about what bhartiya means, it means Indian.
So the whole phrase means 100% purely Indian company. Equivalent to the phrase 100% purely American company.
In both countries, this could indicate alignment with the ultra nationalist party in power who have been espousing a push to produce goods within the country instead of importing from china, or just a normal support local businesses thing.
That is…what a way to inspire mass exodus in the remaining employees.
Here, be honest. Thank you. You’re fired. This feels very Trump-y.
"It's not me, it's you"

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.
