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.

My company will move to 3 days per week in the office soon (from 1 day). I will come in, drink coffee, talk to colleagues and plan to work, but not be able to actually work in that environment due to noise and disruptions.
So I will be almost not productive at all but I guess that's fine. Other coworkers have the same attitude. We will come in and be there but just not even try to actually do work since it's very hard, and we didn't choose to work in that office.
"Nobody wants to work" right? Well, I was working, all was good, but I guess they don't want me to. :)
When you can't negotiate working conditions or wages but you can still control amount of laboue output... Why would anyone with self respect continue to provide high output.?
