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.

That is partially on you

Don't trust companies, especially big companies.

You want me to move to a different city? Pay me.

You want me to quit my current job? I will right after I have signed an actual contract that guarantees I'll have a job with you.

I will NOT risk my life for some billionaire CEO

No, this is on you guys for not having laws or unions. If a company pulls this shit off here they get to pay multiple months of paychecks in damages because they had signed the contract. And even still they cant just lay somebody off like that.

Welcome to modern society :')

Oh for sure, that is how it SHOULD be, but it's not. That is what I was trying to say, we live in a shitty world, don't trust companies

And youre missing the point again. We dont live in a shitty world, you live in a shitty country. What i said is indeed what it should be and what it is actually like here and in the surrounding countries hehe

Why do you think I live in a shitty country?

Also, large corporations suck no matter what country
