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.

What is the meaning of "signing an offer" then? Is this not a binding contract?
Just curious. Not American. Don't know if this has anything to do with the US.
Edit: or was this a situation where only OP signed an offer and then quit the old job before having the signature of the other party? Would be very unusual, I normally get contracts pre signed by my new employer that only I need to sign
