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.

Where is the lemmy for jobs? There is no need to create an account for every company if they all use activitypub.
More than half of my recent applications all used the same workday application service, but you need a unique workday account for every fucking company. Why in the world is it not just a single account‽
It's intentional and is basically hazing. They think you will want the job more if they make you put unnecessary effort into applying for it.
In terms of infosec, it's better for each to have it's own account as you don't want any linkages to other organisations with your data.
It's a gigantic pain in the hole though when you use a password manager.
there needs to be a common form for job applications like with college
they're incentivized to make it as shitty as possible both for this rite of passage shite as well as de-incentivizing workers in general from switching jobs 'too freely'. it helps retention knowing how fucking miserable the process is
Wait, what? This is a thing now? Back in the late 1990's this was most certainly not a thing, but if it's a thing now - wow!
