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.

My wife and I had to pay $1600 a month for daycare as things opened up after the pandemic. The teachers there would have made more working at the Burger King across the street.

im not surprised. thats why people dont want to join the services, why bother when you can make more at walmart, target,,,etc. and they have a higher min wage.
