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’m so tired of old-school managers whose job is to just attend meetings tell me how being in a noisy office is more productive for my highly technical, focus-dependent work.

Sure, pal. Writing scientific code in a place where people attend meetings with their speakers on, and where there’s always the expectation of being interrupted at any time is better than working alone at home.
