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.

Good point. So how would you say I did... was the frosting part too much? ๐
But really, I wonder if it's also a neurodivergence test; in an actual interview setting, I'd probably tend to think about it seriously and answer sincerely, then follow up with details if prompted.
Haha, yeah you might be onto something there. It felt like a way to pull the rug from under people to see how they cope, which wasn't nice. I try to put people at ease in interviews, rather than try to catch them out.
I was ambushed with a "so, what do you do for fun?" once and the sudden context switch made me pause for so long that I must've seemed like I had no life outside of work ๐ฌ
Same, I said "I like electronics and taking things apart", for an IT position. Got the job, ended up on printer duty. That wasn't what I meant by "fun" ๐
