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.

As a former cast member, the pay is atrocious. The "perks" have been slowly removed over the last two decades (I worked there from 2008 - 2016.) I've know plenty of cast members that lived six or eight people to a two bedroom apartment.
They've lost a ton of employees and standards have dropped significantly.
I've got stock in the company too, and I hope they strike and get everything they deserve.
Fuck Iger, he's been screwing over the cast members for years.
You own stock but you're rooting for the impoverished? Get absolutely fucked. Instead of that. How about you help you your fellow man instead of enriching yourself? Sounds real fucking good next to "hoping" my stocks pay off.
