Work Reform
12038 readers

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.

If a majority of boomers think Thing1, but you are a boomer who thinks Thing2 instead, you are not disproving a myth, you're being an outlier. If you were to pick a random boomer off the street, there's a very good chance that he thinks Thing1 instead of Thing2. So "boomers think Thing1" is a perfectly valid (if a bit casual) statment that adequately represents the underlying statistical facts of the situation.
It can be frustrating as a Thing2 boomer, but that's just how it is. The world thinks Amercans are hateful, disgusting ghoulish greedy misanthopists, and it feels bad to hear that as an American who didn't vote for Trump, but I accept the logic behind the generalization.
So now you're telling a guy who lived the experience that he is mistaken. Kid. Enough. You have no idea what you're talking about, like, at all.
You enjoy your evening.
