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.

What's also important is, even though you may seem healthy you can be sick. So your manager is obviously not able to tell that you're sick. German law say that when you are sick it is forbidden to do anything that prevents or interrupt the healing process. This also means, that when you get diagnosed as sick for mental reasons you're allowed to go to the park or go to the amusement park because doing stuff that makes fun is actually quite helpful for this.
