Office Space knew this all the way back in 1999.

I’d say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work

They knew this in the 70’s along with ubi. Milton Friedman is an asshole.

My dream is a 4day/20hour week with 30 days paid leave and a monthly UBI along with free healthcare and free education and universities.

People would struggle so much less this way.

The craziest thing is that economically and resource wise, it’s perfectly doable.

Wow 15 minutes of work for 40 hours of pay. That’s truly inspiring and impressive. 😌👌

Work Reform

!workreform@lemmy.world

Create post

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.
