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'm feeling the same right now. My bosses managed to raise a million bucks for spurious reasons during last year's AI hype and they're grossly unqualified to run a company. I'm pretty sure they regret putting themselves in that position.
As a result, the company sees attrition levels which are ridiculous for an early stage startup, especially considering that they pay pretty well. But I can't afford any down time so I have to stay there until a better opportunity presents itself. It sucks but yeah the learning is incredible.
