The German Train Drivers' union (GDL) has voted nearly unanimously for 'indefinite' strikes after negotiations with Deutsche Bahn broke down. But you don't need to worry about travelling over Christmas.

Not at the slightest. Conditions are bad in that field. Also higher management took in huge belated bonuses from 2022 just a few days ago.

So… they shall go on unlimited strike.

  Yeah, strikes don’t happen for no reason. It is very often warranted.

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.
