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've had a difficult time negotiating this as an American mechanical engineer. There's this bizarre norm of working long weeks even though we get paid way more than most jobs.
I just want health care and they won't offer it at 32 hours. If I'm missing some obvious trick here, please inform me!
Move out of the US?
it's almost as if the US is a shitty place to live O:
