OK, start with Christmas Day. I'll wait.
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.
Soon we'll end up having a holiday for every once working day of the year
Damn! Not that the whole bleat isn't awful, but that's one of the stupidest sentences ever in ALL of the ways! ๐คฆ
Says the man that golf's more than work
He's right. This year, everybody's gotta work Christmas.
And here I thought I would get away without seeing trump bitch about juneteenth..
Don't these holidays cost owners rather than workers, though?
I used to love working holidays as a single guy for that double pay. ๐ค
No holidays means only 1x pay ๐ nevermind if you just wanted to take the day off without getting docked.
No one is forcing anyone to be closed on holidays! There's no law or rule or anything!
Banks don't have to close and work absolute shit hours because they handle money!
You wanna make more money stay open on holidays.
I work in appliance repair I get the 4th of July, thanksgiving and Christmas and new years.
It sucks. But we make more money.
All righty then Ebeneezer...
300 million people can't have a single fucking day off every once in a while because it will "cost billions", while less than 10 people are hoarding over a TRILLION in wealth.
Back to the days of peasants petitioning the lord to restore their holy days
