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.

Starbucks smells like cigarettes.
They also burn the bujesus out of their coffee so it tastes the same everywhere. McDonald's does the same thing. Like crap. But it's ok because they're really just adding a modicum of coffee to effectively a milkshake.
Dunkin kind of expects you to just do cream and sugar, so the coffee has to be better. So it's decent coffee. Decent coffee isn't hard. It's fucking easy. My 15 dollar Mr Coffee makes decent coffee. 2 million bored teenagers around the country are all capable of pouring grounds in to a machine and pressing a button and producing decent coffee.
Starbucks wants to sell you a bunch of other shit with coffee.
I think the Starbucks burnt beans also are so that when you add it to some sort of milkshake, you can still taste coffee. I drink black coffee and I think I'm a super taster so it's the grossest flavor outside of trying to drink an IPA
