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.

That or he is applying for senior positions. I don't know how many times I've talked to young/straight from college who think they're senior level stuff.
Colleges don't teach shit for real world positions anymore, and it gives some of these green ears this ego that they know how to do everything and want max pay. The IT field has tons of positions open, you just shouldn't expect to start at the top with zero real world experience. Even if you have some certs to go with your degree.
