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.

It would be fun to make Trump work a job for 90 days. Nothing major. Maybe answering phones for a help line.

9 to 5 desk job.

Monday through Friday.

If he misses a day he has to "find a new job" and start over.

The dude would fucking CRACK like he was being waterboarded!

And then for evenings and weekends, he has to: do chores around the house, fix shit instead of hiring someone else to do it, pay bills, contact businesses because they billed you incorrectly and you can't afford to pay the extra hundred they're charging you, go grocery shopping, meal prep, do taxes, and all the while be a good husband, father, and person who takes care of themselves.

This should be a requirement for holding public office.

Which is why it's absolutely insane they use aoc's prior job as a bartender as an insult. Motherfuckers, she's probably the only person in office who actually understands what it means to work.

Should be a requirement for life. My SO always says everyone should be required to work retail for one week during the holidays. I have to agree.

Yeah, like how he "worked" at McDee's as a fry cook for 2 minutes and then smiled and waved at people for the rest of his "shift".
