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 don't understand why they think he's worth this much money and effort when by all accounts Chipotle is a shell of its former glory
This is the only metric that boards care about when hiring CEOs:
It won't last. It just takes awhile for consumers to figure out that your product is now shit.
Most people aren't visiting every day to notice the price increases or the quality decreases. And the first or second time it's often written off as just an outlier.
Of course there's variance per customer, but it takes a couple years before you really earn the shitty reputation of something like Dominos circa 2014. In the meantime, line looks like this before it drops. And by that time you're CEO of a different company.
If consumers had any taste, McDonald's would have gone out of business decades ago.
