Office Space knew this all the way back in 1999.

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

Wow 15 minutes of work for 40 hours of pay. Thatโ€™s truly inspiring and impressive. ๐Ÿ˜Œ๐Ÿ‘Œ

They knew this in the 70โ€™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, itโ€™s perfectly doable.

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.
