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 Goals
I think the plan is that a lot of people get a 0 day work week. That's one of the problems.
I think most people should get a 0 day work week. We could have fully automated luxury gay space communism.
2 day work week. Standard hours for a work week are just like the minimum wage. They've been stagnant for decades and haven't adjusted according to company profits and worker productivity increases.
2 days. Why would you ask for 4? That puts you in a shitty bargaining position.
Human productivity alone warranted a 4-day workweek. With AI benefits added in, we should be going down to 3.
No, no, no. They'll just make it so that each of us is expected to do more since AI is "helping" us. Success under capitalism just leads to more work. The number has to keep going up. If they get their arms twisted they may give us a day off, but they will absolutely decrease the pay. My fear is that they would also go, "Oh, well, since you're not working 40 hours a week, even though it's the same work, so no benefits for you 🤷🏿♀️."
Hear hear!
Yeah, I just graced with a glorious 0-day work week. There is no chance ANY of this “productivity” will get anywhere near workers. It’s just a new, exciting way to centralize wealth and power. And if the models get as “intelligent” as the claim they will in 5 years, then with a helping of slavery to boot, ones they are “as smart or smarter” than humans, just without pesky things like rights…
